Chapter 249: Know the clue

Empress Dowager Liu left Zhong Cui Palace with a cold face, and after Empress Dowager Liu's figure disappeared, the look on Empress Chu's face also fell.

From the original coldness to full of worry.

"Yan'er, in fact, there is one thing that Empress Dowager Liu said just now that is not wrong. Although it has now been proved that Yan'er was poisoned, he suddenly vomited blood on the top of the celebration, but the sudden interruption of the celebration did cause a lot of discussion. If those courtiers insist on worrying about this matter, saying that Yao'er is not tolerated by God, I am afraid that it will be very troublesome in the future. ”

"Queen Mother, although there are these rumors, most of them have been suppressed by the father's side. As for those courtiers, it is simply impossible to propose the abolition of the crown prince just because of this, and the father and the emperor will definitely not agree. Yun Qingyan sat down on the side of Empress Chu's bed, "What we need to worry about now is who is behind the scenes who poisoned my younger brother, and whether he has any backhand." ”

If someone really wants to abolish Yunyao's position as the crown prince, this matter may not settle down so quickly, and it is very likely that the people behind the scenes will have other actions.

"Actually, the queen mother had a momentary heartbeat just now, I was just thinking, if I really cooperate with the Empress Dowager Liu, above the court, with the support of the Liu family, if you want, will it be easier next."

Although the Chu family has military power, after all, it is far away from the border pass, and the far water cannot dissolve the near fire, and above this court, she has no way to bring Yao'er any help.

"Queen Mother, I understand what you mean, but have you ever thought that Empress Dowager Liu is scheming and has never been an easy person to deal with. If we do work with her this time, not to mention if she has any other ideas. And once this step is taken, I am afraid that after that, the queen mother and younger brother will be under her control. ”

If it was placed before, it is indeed possible that the Empress Dowager Liu just wants to find a support for the Liu family in the future, so as to maintain the stability of the Liu family's honor.

However, after the last time, it is impossible for Empress Dowager Liu to have no resentment in her heart, she has been standing still during this time, and it is very likely that she is waiting for an opportunity. According to Empress Dowager Liu's temperament, she will inevitably retaliate. If you get on the thief ship of Empress Dowager Liu just because of this little benefit in front of you, I am afraid that you will regret it in the future.

Hong Feng stood aside and also spoke: "Queen Mother, what the princess said is right, Empress Dowager Liu is definitely not a person who can turn war into jade silk. ”

Empress Chu sighed and nodded.

"You're right, but this palace is a little dizzy."

"Queen Mother, now you just need to take good care of your health, as for my brother, if there is any news, I will definitely tell you in time, and there are people behind the scenes, I will continue to investigate."

Empress Chu held Yun Qingyan's hand and patted it gently, "Okay, Yan'er, it's really hard for you." ”

Leaving Zhong Cui Palace, Yun Qingyan was silent all the way.

"Princess, what are you thinking?" Qiu'er asked, looking at the princess's expression, she must be thinking about something.

"I didn't understand who would do it to Yao'er behind my back, but today Empress Dowager Liu came over and gave me a wake-up call. You say, the person who poisoned it could be the Empress Dowager Liu? ”

"Empress Dowager Liu?" Qiu'er was stunned for a moment, "Doesn't Empress Dowager Liu still hope to marry the daughter of the Liu family as the crown princess, it stands to reason that she will not poison His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

"Empress Dowager Liu should know very well in her heart that after the previous events, it is almost impossible to marry the daughter of the Liu family to Yunyao. But today, she came to the mother's harem, and she looked like she wanted to discuss the matter. She has been in the harem for many years, and it is impossible not to know that the most likely result after coming here today is to touch the ashes. But knowing that she would be rejected, why did she come today? ”

"This ......" Qiu'er's face was full of doubts, "Princess, did you think of something?" ”

"Let's imagine that if this poison was given by Empress Dowager Liu, in order to prevent us from suspecting her, so she specially went to the mother's harem today to perform such a play, is it possible?"

Qiu'er's eyes lit up, "Princess, if you say so, there is indeed such a possibility!" Could it be that the Queen Mother really poisoned His Royal Highness the Prince? ”

The Queen Mother had poisoned the Queen Mother before, but she was exposed by the princess, and she was imprisoned for so long, she must have hated it in her heart. Moreover, Liu Wushuang has been driven out of the palace, and the plan to marry the daughter of the Liu family to the crown prince has also failed, if you think about it this way, the queen mother does have a motive to poison the prince.

"It's just my guess, after all, there's no evidence." Yun Qingyan sighed, "Now I just hope that Feng Yihan can find out something." ”

"Instead of pinning your hopes on Mrs. Feng, you might as well come and beg me, maybe I can provide you with some evidence."

Behind him, Yun Xiyue's voice suddenly sounded.

Yun Qingyan turned his head and looked at Yun Xiyue who walked from the palace road behind him.

"What do you mean by that?"

Could it be that Yun Xiyue knows something about this incident?

"I haven't seen you for a few days, and you look a lot haggard." Yun Xiyue laughed, "That's right, the prince and the queen both had accidents, and now that you have lost two backers at once, how can you not be in a hurry." ”

Looking at Yun Xiyue's appearance, Qiu'er suddenly felt a little annoyed in her heart.

"Third princess, if you want to gloat, forget it, even if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is unconscious and the Queen Mother is sick, our princess is also the eldest princess, and with the emperor's love, you can't compare."

Yun Xiyue's face sank, and she raised her hand and hit Qiu'er, "Presumptuous, you, you dare to speak to this princess like this!" ”

Yun Qingyan intercepted Yun Xiyue's hand in mid-air, "My people haven't been able to teach you a lesson." ”

Yun Xiyue struggled for a while, but her wrist was pulled tightly, and there was no way to break free.

With a sneer, Yun Xiyue no longer struggled, but looked at Yun Qingyan.

"Okay, just a slave maid, this princess can not worry about her. However, Yun Qingyan, don't you want to know who poisoned Yun Yao? ”

Yun Qingyan raised his eyebrows, "You know? ”

Yun Xiyue glanced at her wrist that was being grabbed, "Now you're begging me to tell you, don't you let go?" ”

Yun Qingyan let go of Yun Xiyue, looked at her and said, "What do you really know?" ”

"Nature." Yun Xiyue smiled proudly, "It's a coincidence, I happened to find some evidence in this matter, if you want to know, the harem hot spring will come to me tonight." But you can only go alone, and if you bring someone else's, I won't tell you anything. ”

"Why wait until tonight, and still be in the harem hot springs?"

"Naturally, because this matter is extremely secretive, if I tell you, I have to bear the risk of being calculated by the people behind the scenes." Yun Xiyue paused, "Of course, if you're afraid, you can not come." ”
