After the early dynasty, the prince went to the imperial study with the emperor and came out for about half an hour. Just as he was about to go back to the East Palace, he saw a person in official uniform standing under the stone steps on the side of the hall.

Seeing the prince come out, the man hurriedly stepped forward and bowed down to greet him.

This person is not an outsider, it is the grandfather of the crown prince, the father of the former queen, the old marquis of Yeyang.

"Grandfather! How did you get into the palace? The prince hurriedly stepped forward to support the Marquis of Yeyang, "Don't be polite." ”

"The prince is a king, and the old man is a minister, not to mention that people come and go here, His Royal Highness the prince should accept the worship of the old minister, so as not to be criticized by others, our Ye Yang family does not understand the rules."

No, the prince had to be born to accept this worship, since he was a child, he was not very close to his grandfather, since he can remember, his grandfather has been a successor, he has regarded himself as a prince to respect, although this is a matter of course in the etiquette, but as his own ancestor, Dongling Yi always felt that his grandfather was too rigid and indifferent.

"Originally, my grandson was going to go out of the palace to see you in the afternoon, and I would come back after dinner with you, but I didn't want my grandfather to come to the palace first, could it be that the little Xizi who was sent out to deliver the news was not good and sent the wrong letter?"

"His Royal Highness the Prince, don't misunderstand, it was this morning that the happy father-in-law came to the house to inform him, and the old minister immediately changed his clothes and entered the palace." Ye Yanghou bowed his hand and said respectfully: "His Royal Highness the prince has only returned to the palace, and there are already many affairs, why do you need to go out of the palace to visit the old minister in person, not to mention that the prince has suffered a lot in the imperial tomb for a month, so it should be the old minister who entered the palace to visit the prince." ”

The grandfather was still polite, and Tanglin didn't say much, he must have to meet with the grandfather alone, but the left was just changed to the palace, and it didn't hurt.

"Grandfather, it's a big day outside, hurry up and go back to the East Palace with your grandson to drink tea and moisten it." With that, the two walked towards the East Palace together.

At this time, on the high stone steps behind them, in the open door of the imperial study, Tanglin Xun was standing there watching the backs of the two leaving, his right hand turning the jade wrench on the thumb of his left hand, and his body was shrouded in a murderous aura.

"Someone, remove the jade cushion on the chair and replace it with a soft goose feather cushion, my grandfather doesn't like strong tea, so change to a pot of peony spring tea." As he spoke, he looked at the fruit bowl on the small table, and said, "Pour out the ice that holds the fruits, and replace them with some ordinary and cool fruits." ”

After entering the palace, the prince made an arrangement and gave Ye Yanghou the highest courtesy.

Seeing the prince like this, Ye Yanghou's eyes also relaxed a lot from the initial vigilance and hesitation.

After arranging everything, the prince sent all the palace people down, and then turned around and sat down.

Although Ye Yanghou knew that his grandson was going to see him alone today, it was by no means so simple as visiting, but as soon as he entered the main hall of the East Palace, he retreated, which made Ye Yanghou vigilant again.

"The prince went to the imperial tomb for a month, and he was tired of traveling back and forth, and today he saw that he was much thinner than before, and the prince still had to pay more attention to his body."

"As a son, I didn't see my mother for the last time before her death, and when my mother died, my grandson must personally send my mother on her last journey to make up for the regret in my heart."

"It's a pity, it's a pity, the old minister has many sons in this life, but there is only this one pearl in the palm of his hand, and now the white-haired person sends the black-haired person, but he can't even send Han'er a ride......" The old marquis said of the sorrow, and couldn't help but redden.

Dongling Yi was also poked in the sad place again, but in the face of his grandfather, he could only beat his spirit and comforted him: "Grandfather, you mourn, the queen mother has rested in peace, and we living people should be peaceful and happy, which is the best thought for her." ”

Hearing this, Ye Yanghou glanced at the prince deeply, and said quietly: "If the queen can really rest in peace, it is naturally the best." ”

The meaning of the old marquis's words could not be more obvious, and now he does not agree with the statement about the death of the first queen.

Tanglin Yi met his grandfather alone today for this matter, and the emperor's grandfather took the lead in opening this talk, which is the best.

"Grandfather, the day before yesterday, my uncle came to the imperial mausoleum to worship my mother, and took me back to the court, and on the way he mentioned to me, is my mother's death not as simple as we see in our eyes?"

But the Marquis of Yeyang was silent at the moment, looking at Dongling Yi with a difficult face.

"The queen mother's funeral, before those assassins were sentenced to death, they confessed that the behind-the-scenes instructors were the remnants of the previous dynasty's cult, and now they are cleared, even if the grandson is grieving, but there is no way to do it, and the uncle's words made the grandson suspicious, is there something else wrong with the mother's death? Or maybe the Assassins had no other identity at all? Seeing that the Marquis of Yeyang was still hesitating, the prince then stepped forward and said a little excitedly: "Ancestor, if the king behind the scenes is not accidental, it means that the assassination of the father and emperor is also carefully planned and the means are very scheming. ”

"Hey......" Ye Yanghou sighed and finally opened his mouth, "Originally, I didn't want the prince to know about this, because I was afraid that the prince would be more sad and angry, but now that the prince has noticed it, the old minister has no need to hide it, so he will tell the prince everything." ”

As he spoke, Ye Yanghou picked up the tea bowl next to him and slowly took a sip, and after covering the tea lid, he raised his eyes and looked at Dongling Yi again: "The prince still remembers a person, Mo Yan." ”

"What, what, my grandfather said...... Brother Huang? Although Dongling Yi already knew that his brother was still alive, he couldn't show it in front of anyone, and he naturally had to hide it in front of his grandfather at this moment.

Hearing the prince say the word "imperial brother", a trace of disdain flowed in his eyes, "Heh, yes, it's your so-called imperial brother." ”

"The imperial brother died in the fire in Kunyi Palace more than ten years ago, why did my grandfather mention him at this time?"

"If the old minister told the prince, then Mo Yan didn't die at all, and he has been alive and well until now?"

Although Ye Yanghou is over seventy years old and his hair and beard are gray, his eyes are so sharp that he looks like a general who is about to enter and exit the battlefield, which makes the prince almost take a step back.

"What, what? Grandfather, you say......"

"Yes, Concubine Shu did commit suicide at the beginning, but Mo Yan, the son of Concubine Shu, is still alive, and now he is back, and the head of the assassin who assassinated the emperor and queen is Mo Yan."

"It's the imperial brother...... "Dongling Yi stood up and hurriedly asked: "Then the imperial brother ...... now?"

"Escaped."

"Escaped ......"

Ye Yanghou carefully observed Dongling Yi's expression, and saw that there seemed to be no stretch between his eyebrows, and then opened his mouth: "The prince should know that in the middle of the situation at that time, the Praetorian Guards had already rushed to the rescue and laid a net around him, and that Mo Yan could escape, unless one person acquiesced, and then the truth of the matter was covered up and completely became another story, and only one person could do it." ”

Tanglin Yi sat down on the Jiaolong chair behind him in a distraction, and muttered, "Yes...... Father. ”
