On that day, I did not live in the Thirteenth Brother's Mansion, but rode back to the palace. As soon as it was dark, I entered the secret room through the secret passage, and this day was the day of the secret guard's deliberations.

Wind Shadow, Cloud Shadow, Willow Shadow and Butterfly Shadow all looked a little solemn, and when they saw me, they all immediately knelt on the ground: "My subordinates are incompetent, please ask my master to surrender." ”

I sat down blankly and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

The four of them didn't speak until Kazekage spoke, "The subordinates and others are incompetent and have failed to protect the Eighteenth Highness. ”

There was a "buzz" in my head, and after trying to calm myself, I thought, no, that's not what history records, Xiao Eighteen is okay now, I tried to ask in a calm tone: "What happened?" ”

"The subordinates received information that someone wanted to drug a certain highness, but the subordinates didn't expect it to be the eighteenth elder brother. So, I didn't ......" Kazekage couldn't go on.

"The situation of the subordinates' surveillance is related to it, but I thought that I would attack an older elder brother, so I ...... it to the eighteenth elder brother," Yun Ying said guiltily.

"Master, Butterfly Shadow pleads. The subordinates failed to protect the Eighteenth Highness, and the Eighteenth Highness was drugged, and the subordinates were incompetent. ”

I shook my head and said, "Get up and talk, I don't blame you." ”

After seeing that they all got up and sat down, I asked, "What kind of drug did Little Eighteen have?" ”

"It's not poison, it's just that His Highness Eighteen has always been weak, and it is a medicine that accelerates the decay of his body." Cloud Shadow replied.

"Is there a way?"

Several people shook their heads, and Liu Ying said, "The current situation of His Highness Eighteen, we are at a loss. Emperor Luan is already on his way back. There was nothing the imperial doctor could do. ”

I closed my eyes and nodded, and only after a while did I speak, "What else is going on?" ”

"The emperor already knew about Zheng Guiren and the crown prince, and Suo Etu conspired with others to usurp the throne, and Mingzhu secretly added fuel to the fire and wanted to reap the benefits. On Babel's side, except for Ren Bo'an, there has been no major movement recently. ”

I thought for a while and said, "There is no need to interfere in the affairs of Suo Etu and Mingzhu, protect the safety of the emperor and your elder brothers." Send people to closely monitor Ren Bo'an. What happened to the child in Zheng Guiren's belly? ”

Yun Ying replied: "She is a smart person, and there are no more children. ”

I bowed my head slightly and said to Liu Ying, "Liu Ying, give Zheng Guiren some medicine." Don't be too fast, let her slowly die of depression. ”

The four of them were stunned for a moment, and then Kazekage nodded in response.

I paused, a thought flashed through my mind, and I asked, "What is the situation of Fucha Fujin in the Thirteenth Master's Mansion?" ”

"Fucha Fujin is the daughter of the Elder Sangha. It's been a few years since I entered the Thirteenth Elder Brother's Mansion, what's wrong? Master? ”

"I just think this woman is wrong, what happened before she married into the Thirteenth Master's Mansion?"

"It's nothing else, but it seems that I was very fond of the Ninth Master when I was not out of the cabinet." Liu Ying hesitated for a moment and replied.

I thought about it for a moment and said, "Keeping an eye on her, I always feel that there is something evil about her." ”

"Yes!" Cloud Shadow commands.

"Is there anything else? It's okay to disperse. With that, I saw that they were all right, and I turned around and went back to my room through the secret passage.

Lying on the bed, I couldn't sleep, and the secret guard couldn't find out who was the one who attacked Xiao Eighteen. Prince? It doesn't seem to make much sense. Big brother? If so, why? Yes, no matter who it is, it doesn't seem to be good for Xiao Eighteen, except for making Kangxi feel sad, what else can he do?

I stayed up all night and woke up early the next day to sit at my desk.

I couldn't read a book, I couldn't settle down to write, so I just sat at the table, and any thought after thought ran back and forth in my head. I was thinking about what it would mean to everyone and what was at stake.

Eighteen, Little Eighteen......

But she is still a child, and her mother's concubine Wang is not high in terms of background or position, and she remembers that the concubine's family is just a county order, so there is no problem of fighting for power in the court. So why do you want to attack Xiao Eighteen?

I sat still, unable to figure out how to figure it out......

"Jade Ice?"

I looked up when I heard the sound, the fourth master was standing at the door of the house looking at me, I was stunned, and said, "Fourth brother, come in." ”

The fourth master walked straight to the desk and sat down on the bench that I had made for the Internal Affairs Office to be widened and enlarged, and covered with several layers of thick plush cushions, he looked at my empty desktop and asked, "I thought you were practicing calligraphy again......

"My heart is in a mess, and I can't calm down."

"The undersides of my eyes are a little blue, haven't you slept well?"

I nodded, the fourth master pursed his thin lips lightly, and said, "Yubing, I just received the news, there is something, you have to be mentally prepared......"
