After drinking all the tea like Cheng Xiaoxiao, Chu Hongyi poured another cup with unfinished thoughts, and did not forget to patiently answer Cheng Xiaoxiao's doubts.

Cheng Xiaoxiao lowered her head in some disappointment, and she was very discouraged at the thought of not being able to see Chu Yunshen.

It would have been good if I didn't know the news, but I had to tell her this.

Now that she can't see Chu Yunshen, can she be in a good mood?

But what Chu Hongyi said was true, just when Cheng Xiaoxiao was still sitting at the table and stamped her feet in frustration, Chu Yunshen had already left the palace without touching the ground.

There is no need for Cheng Xiaoxiao to worry about it, Chu Yunshen also wants to visit Cheng Xiaoxiao, but the facts that Chu Hongzhen told him just now are urgent, and he has no time to inform Cheng Xiaoxiao at all.

Then focus on the overall situation and solve the current matter quickly.

In his room, he handed the newly written secret letter to Xiao Wu, and Chu Yunshen asked Xiao Wu to rummage through the list of officials who had been sent by Chu Jingxuan to Hu Ji before.

"Sure enough."

After reading the list, he showed a meaningful smile and confidently put the list away.

Today, Chu Hongzhen asked him to go to investigate Wang Liangxiong, Tian Feng and others who had been admonished by the early dynasty, Chu Hongzhen meant to suspect that they were instructed by others.

Moreover, the rumors seemed to have been settled by Chu Hongzhen today, but in fact, it was just a temporary suppression.

I am afraid that there will be more and more ministers in the court who have opinions, and those words will be spread more and more excessively, and it will be out of control when the time comes.

Therefore, Chu Yunshen must find the source of these ministers, that is, the people behind him.

The matter of suddenly mentioning Zhu Rong to him is far from being that simple.

Chu Hongzhen's vigilance was indeed right, when Chu Yunshen heard Chu Hongzhen mention this matter before, he felt that Wang Liangxiong and the names of several of them were very familiar, and when he finished checking the list, he knew what the problem was.

These people are all Chu Jingxuan's people in private.

Now it seems that Chu Jingxuan's purpose is already obvious.

Let Zhu Rong charm the emperor first, and then spread rumors that the emperor is addicted to women, and finally rebel logically.

It can also be called its name 'Qingjun side'.

Chu Yun groaned for a moment, then took out another piece of paper and wrote down a new secret letter and handed it to Xiao Wu, and he took the list again and set off again to return to the palace.

When he arrived at the gate of the palace again, it was already curfew time, but he still sent the message to the guards to go to the imperial study to find Chu Hongzhen to report.

Chu Hongzhen doesn't like Chu Yunshen, everyone knows it, but Chu Yunshen's ability to do things is also obvious to all.

It's this late-night visit, in the end, it's still obvious, I don't know how many people with a heart are looking at it, but they can't get any news.

Originally, Chu Hongzhen was served by Yuan Qing, as long as he started from Yuan Qing, he would definitely be able to come up with some words.

But Yuan Qing's biggest principle is that everything comes with his heart, as long as he is not happy, even if it is a minister or a harem concubine, he can't stammer.

Now that this matter is this, Yuan Qing tightened his mouth, gritted his teeth, and made up his mind not to say a word of nonsense.

Implicated in the harem and the court, Chu Hongzhen's anger Yuan Qing saw it in his eyes, how could he take the initiative to hit it.

Moreover, it was Chu Yunshen who was examining this matter, and Chu Yunshen's 'iron-faced and selfless' judgment was like a god, and no one could escape his eyes.

Yuan Qing has served Chu Hongzhen for so many years, and he is not tired of being crooked, he has to see Qian and covet those things outside his body.

After the thoughtful Yuan Qing sent away a little eunuch, he stomped lightly outside the door of the imperial study.

After Chu Yunshen, who was visiting late at night, came out, he saluted Chu Yunshen again, turned around and went in to find Chu Hongzhen.

After Chu Yunshen arrived at the imperial study just now, Chu Hongzhen asked Yuan Qing to guard the door.

said that he asked Yuan Qing not to let anyone in, but in fact, he was afraid that even Yuan Qing wanted to hide it.

Yuan Qing guessed correctly when he observed his words, Chu Hongzhen was indeed this plan.

Chu Hongzhen was still thinking about what Chu Yunshen had come to tell him just now, and when he looked at the list on the table again, the black and white words were so dazzling.

Chu Yunshen didn't say too much in one breath, otherwise Chu Hongzhen probably wouldn't punish Chu Jingxuan, but would first deduct him from knowing and not reporting it.

According to his understanding of Chu Hongzhen, Chu Hongzhen, who was extremely suspicious, would not easily believe his words.

Everything falls into place?

Chu Hongzhen was afraid that he was more willing to believe that this was designed by him in advance, and the purpose was to frame Chu Jingxuan.

Therefore, Chu Yunshen only brought the list tonight, and generously said that there was nothing unusual about those ministers.

The only thing Wang Liangxiong and them have in common is that they have received orchids sent by Chu Jingxuan in different time periods.

"These ministers are quite fond of those orchids, and they are all very fond of orchids, and even forgot their original partners who were originally very affectionate."

This is what Chu Yunshen said to Chu Hongzhen at that time, and he also helped explain:

"Although this matter is a bit strange, it is just a family matter of a few ministers, and there should be nothing wrong with the ministers."

Inappropriate.

Of course not.

The words sounded familiar, as if they had happened.

Chu Hongzhen unconsciously thought of his own abnormal behavior for more than a month, and suddenly he loved Zhu Rong in every way, and he couldn't help but feel a loud alarm bell in his heart.

His rigorous expression alone betrayed his heart, and Chu Yunshen had already seen all this quietly.

"Check! Keep checking! Check it out for me! ”

After three consecutive 'check' words, Chu Hongzhen's big hand waved, and he frowned and ended this secret conversation where only he and Chu Yunshen knew the content.

By the time Yuan Qing came in, Chu Hongzhen had already finished reading the long list, and he wanted to put the roster away, but he had no desire to put it away at all.

Regarding Chu Yunshen's words, Chu Hongzhen believed seventy or eighty percent.

He just didn't expect that after checking these groundless rumors, he found out something else.

Originally, he still planned to go to Zhu Rong Na tonight, Zhu Rong changed to a new garden today, and he should go.

But now the enthusiasm in his heart is still there, but the reason in his head is dissuading him.

Chu Hongzhen called Yuan Qing in because he wanted to send Yuan Qing to go on a run, and tonight, he didn't want to go anywhere.

Yuan Qing also saw the list on Chu Hongzhen's table, and he squinted and saw that there was a list of adult names on it in addition to Wang Liangxiong and Tian Feng.

Chu Hongzhen glanced at Yuan Qing, and Yuan Qing took the first step to retract his eyes.

Knowing that Chu Hongzhen didn't go to Zhu Rong's place, Yuan Qing opened his mouth wide without disguise, and he asked cautiously:

"Then do you want to turn over other Niangniang brands?"

Yuan Qing bowed and waited for Chu Hongzhen, but unfortunately it was Chu Hongzhen's long silence that answered Yuan Qing.

Zhu Rong also received two pieces of paper this night, which is an extremely rare phenomenon for Chu Yunshen, who has few conversations.

When Zhu Rong finished reading the contents of the secret letter, he also had a rare sad face, and he lost his cold appearance in the past.

Chu Yunshen wanted Zhu Rong to confess his identity to Chu Hongzhen.

Of course, this identity cannot be Zhu Rong's real secret guard identity, but to do things for Chu Jingxuan, as a fake identity of Hu Ji cultivated by Chu Jingxuan.

And Chu Yunshen guessed that Chu Jingxuan might make a move in the past two days, so that Zhu Rong could protect Chu Hongzhen and be optimistic about Cheng Xiaoxiao.

In these two days, tomorrow is the birthday banquet of the fourteenth prince Chu Hongyi; The day after tomorrow is the birthday family banquet of the eighth prince Chu Jingxuan.

No matter what day it is, from tonight onwards, she can no longer take it lightly.

If it was tomorrow, then Chu Yunshen would come to the secret letter again.

She also has to be ready at any time, first confess to Chu Hongzhen before this incident, so as to remind Chu Hongzhen and win Chu Hongzhen's trust.

Chu Hongzhen hasn't come to her tonight.

Thinking of this, Zhu Rong was inevitably a little upset, she walked around the house, and after a while, she changed to the window, and then slowly regained her calm.

We can only wait and see what happens.

The long night has passed after all, and Zhu Rong doesn't know whether to be happy or what.

She hadn't closed her eyes all night, but she hadn't waited for an urgent secret message, and she hadn't heard any codes.

It seems that Chu Yunshen has not found any news on his side, and the Eighth Prince will not do it today.

Then she still has time to prepare tonight, and she can go and explain everything to Chu Hongzhen.

Cheng Xiaoxiao will also leave after today's banquet, so she doesn't have to worry about Cheng Xiaoxiao's safety.

It's just that tomorrow, will the Eighth Prince really want to rebel?

According to what Chu Yunshen said, under the banner of 'Qingjun's side', he led troops to force Chu Hongzhen to abdicate?

Zhu Rong is not from Chu State, but she is Chu Yunshen's secret guard.

This is the country where Chu Yunshen is located, and it is also the land where Zhu Rong grows.

She didn't dare to think about what it would be like for Chu State to change Chu Jingshuo to be the king, and she didn't want to think about it.

The hour has come, Zhu Rong changed his clothes and makeup in front of the mirror, and walked to the already arranged Baohe Hall as in the past.

The Baohe Hall is full of people, the ministers sit staggered according to the official ranks, and the other side is separated by a screen is the harem concubines and the female dependents of the ministers.

After she entered, the ministers were silent for a moment, and when she walked around the screen to the women's seat, the women's side was so quiet that she could hear a pin on the ground.

But she saw the only outlier, that is, Cheng Xiaoxiao, who was working hard.

Cheng Xiaoxiao was woken up by Chu Hongyi's knock on the door early in the morning, and she still wanted to sleep a little longer, but Chu Hongyi was chattering and arguing by the bedside for a long time.

It's rare that Chu Hongyi is so busy today that he can take the first step to wake Cheng Xiaoxiao up, but he didn't expect Cheng Xiaoxiao to take it for granted that he didn't accept his affection.

"Is Chu Yunshen coming?"

Cheng Xiaoxiao covered her head in the quilt, and her voice sounded muffled and unreal.

"The fourth brother said that he has some things to deal with, and he probably won't come."

When it comes to Chu Yunshen, Chu Hongyi is inevitably a little disappointed.

His voice sounded muffled with a hint of grumbling:

"The fourth brother is really an unpredictable prophet, he said early in the morning that he had something to do today. Unexpectedly, it became a prophecy, and Xu was sent out by his father. ”

Cheng Xiaoxiao didn't want to hear these words, it was enough for her to hear the sentence 'Chu Yunshen is not coming'.

"So how do I get there? I can't get in! ”

Cheng Xiaoxiao arched back and forth in the quilt, like something in a large toilet.

Even she herself didn't know whether it was because she was upset because she couldn't get in, or because Chu Yunshen was insecure.

"But even if the fourth brother is here, you can't sit together."

Chu Hongyi muttered quietly, a little unable to understand Cheng Xiaoxiao's thoughts.

"What did you say?!"

Cheng Xiaoxiao lifted the quilt, revealing her chicken-like hair and messy clothes.

"You, you put on your clothes, Xiaoxiao."
