"Qing'er, in terms of beauty and talent, this harem is stronger than your mother and me, but there are a lot. But there is only one thing, and I think that the queen mother is a hundred times stronger than them. Do you know what it is? The queen asked.

Yun Muqing thought about it carefully and said hesitantly: "Erchen remembers that the queen mother once said that she knew her father very well. This is also one of the reasons why it has stood in the Middle Palace for many years. ”

Listening to Yun Muqing's words, the queen smiled proudly, nodded, and said, "Yes, the queen mother thinks that no one in this palace knows your father better than me." ”

"The queen mother is wise." Yun Muqing couldn't help but say.

The queen then sneered, "snorted", and said: "Most of the women in this harem are shallow, and they only know how to compete in front of the emperor. The favor of the emperor lasts for a few years at most. Instead of wasting time competing for favor, it is better to speculate more about the holy decree. ”

"What does the queen mother think her father said to Yun Chuhan? So much so that he frowned. Yun Muqing asked.

The smile on the queen's face disappeared: "Qing'er, the queen mother guesses that your father and the emperor let Yun Chuhan choose, and the country is still a beauty." ”

Listening to the queen's words, Yun Muqing stood up violently. At this moment, he was angry.

In Yun Muqing's opinion, who would give up the country because of a woman? Yun Chuhan's sadness must be pretentious. Soon, he will return to the palace to tell his father that he wants the country.

The queen waved her hand at Yun Muqing and motioned for him to sit down.

Yun Muqing suppressed the anger in her heart and sat down.

"Don't worry. Qing'er, you remember. As long as the emperor is still there and the edict has not been issued, we still have a chance. ”

The queen's words did not make Yun Muqing feel better.

"Erchen shouldn't listen to that Situ Jing! Father must have listened to those rumors! Yun Muqing beat his leg with his fist, very remorseful.

The queen frowned, shook her head helplessly, and scolded sharply: "If it weren't for those rumors, Yun Chuhan would be the crown prince by now!" It is precisely because the emperor takes care of the royal face that he gives us the opportunity to re-plan. Qing'er, can you not always be so reckless! ”

Yun Muqing raised her head violently and looked at the queen, and her chagrin disappeared suddenly.

The queen took a deep breath and calmed down her emotions: "Qing'er, be calm in case of trouble. Even if it is the worst outcome, as long as Yun Chuhan does not ascend the throne, we will not lose. ”

Yun Muqing nodded: "Erchen wrote it down." ”

The queen knew her son, who was always impatient and impulsive when things happened. She couldn't rest assured.

"Oops!" Li Jiujiu couldn't help but scream.

Just now, she was embroidering a handkerchief. As a result, the state is really bad today. The right eyelid keeps jumping, and I always feel uncomfortable embroidering. Now I accidentally pricked my finger, and it hurts.

Mrs. Liu hurriedly walked over: "What's the matter, Niangniang?" ”

Bi Luo also put down the work in his hand and walked over.

Li Jiujiu smiled and said, "It's okay, I just accidentally pricked my finger." ”

After speaking, Li Jiujiu looked at the half-embroidered handkerchief on the table. Blood dripped onto the bamboo leaves.

"Oops! I don't know if I can wash it off! "I feel very uncomfortable after a long time.

"Miss, there is no need to embroider handkerchiefs now. Go ahead and throw this away. The slave went to the embroidery room to find the best embroiderer to embroider one. Bi Luo said.

Lijiu shook his head. In fact, she is not particularly fond of bamboo. It's just that a few days ago, when she had nothing to do, she suddenly remembered the days when she used to embroider handkerchiefs by herself, and then she gave the blue basket to Mrs. Liu, and then Mrs. Liu sold it again.

Others are more complicated, just this bamboo, which does not need complex colors, and is simple to embroider.

"I'll hurry up and embroider it, otherwise after a long time, this blood stain will not be washed away." With a long smile, he picked up the handkerchief and continued to embroider.

At this time, Yun Chuhan and Jin Ze had already returned to the Chu Palace.

Back at the Yingchun Pavilion, Yun Chuhan told Jin Ze the emperor's words.

"Kanazawa, what do you think this king should do?" After speaking, Yun Chuhan let out a long sigh, he didn't think Jin Ze could have any good ideas.

"Lord Wang, isn't the top priority right now to quell the rumors?"

Hearing Jin Ze's words, Yun Chuhan raised his head and looked at him fiercely.

A word wakes up the dreamer. Instead of wasting time on the unsolvable issue of choosing the country or the princess, it is better to quickly quell the rumors and make plans again.

"Kanazawa, you send someone to investigate. Let's see who is spreading the rumors! ”

"Yes, Lord Wang!" Kanazawa left in a hurry.

Yun Chuhan stood up and decided to go to the Peony Pavilion to have a look. Just as he was about to walk out of the Yingchun Pavilion, a messenger guard hurriedly ran in: "Lord Wang, Imperial Doctor Chi is here!" ”

Yun Chuhan was shocked, he actually came back so soon!

"What are you doing, come in!" Chi Cheng entered the Spring Pavilion like a gust of wind.

By the time Yun Chuhan reacted, he had already entered the main hall.

Yun Chuhan hurriedly walked into the main hall.

"How? Any news? Yun Chuhan still held on to a glimmer of hope and looked at Chi Cheng intently.

"Don't worry. I have entrusted this matter to my junior brother. He is a very reliable person, and his martial arts and light skills are now above me. Chi Cheng hurriedly said.

Yun Chuhan's glimmer of hope was shattered. He sat down dumbfounded, not saying a word.

Chi Cheng sighed, took out something from his arms, put it on the table, and pushed it in front of Yun Chuhan.

"Lord Wang, in this situation, no news is the best news. This is what I found at the foot of the mountain. ”

Yun Chuhan saw that it was a sachet. He picked up the sachet and examined it closely. The white jade is flawless, hollow and carved, and there is an incense pill inside, which is Yun Chenhuan's favorite taste.

"That's right, it's the fifth brother's."

"According to my guess, although Chen Wang Ye has reached the foot of the mountain, he has not gone up the mountain at all. I came back because I heard the wind. Chi Cheng frowned.

Yun Chuhan had never seen Chi Cheng so serious, even when he was treating the harem girls.

"Isn't it, those rumors about the princess?" Yun Chuhan only felt more upset.

Good things don't go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles. Especially such unfounded rumors, it's like having wings.

Chi Cheng nodded slightly and said, "When I just came in, I saw Kanazawa walking in a hurry. ”

"The king has sent him to find out the people who spread the rumors. Just now the king entered the palace......"

Yun Chuhan told Chicheng what the emperor and Gonggong Xue said when he entered the palace today.

"The throne and the princess, no matter who it is, will choose the former. Are you sure it's not the emperor who is testing you? Chi Cheng asked.

Yun Chuhan shook his head: "This is about royal face. The king does not think that his father is tempting. ”

"Leave this alone. Since it's up to you to come back and think about it, it's that there's still time. You first find out where the source of the rumors is, and kill a monkey. Later, I'll ask Master how the emperor's condition is. However, the top priority now is to let the emperor know that His Royal Highness King Chen is not going to find the Tianshan Snow Lotus. After Chi Cheng finished speaking, he looked around.

"But how? Is it just a sachet? Yun Chuhan put down the white jade sachet.

"I need pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and the handwriting of Prince Chen!" Chi Cheng said anxiously.

Yun Chuhan understood.

"No! This is full of loopholes! Yun Chuhan didn't want to deceive his father, and felt that he was a little sorry for Yun Chenhuan by doing so.

Chi Cheng patted Yun Chuhan on the shoulder heavily, looked at him seriously, and said earnestly: "I met the killer after I left the city." This doesn't make sense, after all, my current identity is just a doctor. Soon, Yan Che will also return. He also encountered the Assassins. What does this mean? Yun Chuhan, someone is eyeing you, staring at your every move. Rumors, assassins, the disappearance of King Chen, things may be much more serious than these! You don't think it's all a coincidence, do you? ”

"Assassins. This king, you, Yan Che. Yun Chuhan fell into deep thought.

Chi Cheng was right. These things alone may not be a problem. Together, that's a conspiracy.

The first person Yun Chuhan thought of was Yun Muqing. Of course, others are not impossible.

Yun Chuhan's voice suddenly became a little low: "Chi Cheng, you are being hunted down." Either there is something wrong with the people in your house, or someone has already set their sights on you. ”

Listening to Yun Chuhan's words, Chi Cheng glared at him coldly: "It should be someone staring at you, and I am implicated." ”

Then, Chi Cheng waved his hand and retracted his gaze: "It's useless to say this, it's already a grasshopper on a rope, so let's solve the dilemma in front of us first." ”

"But ......" Yun Chuhan still hesitated.

"Then do you choose the throne or the princess?" Chi Cheng asked bluntly.

When Yun Chuhan heard this question, his mind was even more confused and unable to think. He had to point to the shelf.

Chi Cheng saw the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, so he got up and went to get it.

As for Yun Chenhuan's handwriting, Yun Chuhan has something to do here. The letters he had sent to him, as well as the poems he had written, were well preserved.

"Hurry up, don't grind!" Chi Cheng urged.

Yun Chuhan got up and went to find a letter that Yun Chenhuan wrote to him when he traveled before. When he returned, Chi Cheng had already finished the ink.

Chi Cheng looked at Yun Chenhuan's handwriting carefully, then picked up the pen and began to write.

Yun Chuhan felt very uncomfortable in his heart. Doing this, I always feel sorry for Yun Chenhuan. However, he knew that Evian Chenhuan's temperament would not blame him.

Yun Chuhan was very worried about him.

Chi Cheng's handwriting is indeed very similar. He put down his pen and compared himself carefully. Then he frowned, crumpled what he had just written, and picked up the pen to write again.

Yun Chuhan got up and went to the shelf to get a fire fold. He lit a candle and brought the candlestick over.

The "defective product" that Chi Cheng had just lost, Yun Chuhan burned it to ashes.

After a while, Chi Cheng was ready. However, he carefully compared the handwriting, and still felt dissatisfied. I had to burn it and rewrite it.

After repeating it several times, Chi Cheng felt that this would not work. Although time was pressing, he had to calm down first.
