Chapter 292: The Secret Passage Opened
The little eunuch of Renshou Palace reported the words of the Queen Mother to the prince.
The yin owl in the prince's eyes was even worse, but his voice was still as gentle as ever: "I know, you go back to Renshou Palace first and tell the imperial grandmother that as long as there is this palace, you will protect the Chengen Mansion." ”
When the little eunuch heard this, he bowed down and retired.
When he walked away, Gonggong Lu said suspiciously: "Gonggong Tang missed and was tied up by His Royal Highness King Yi, and the prince was also arrested in Jingzhao Mansion, it stands to reason that the Queen Mother should not be so calm......"
The prince was not surprised.
He sneered: "This palace still underestimates Xiao Qingchu's brain. ”
When Gonggong Lu heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
He lowered his eyes and asked worriedly: "The Queen Mother asked Her Royal Highness to come forward to deal with this matter, and Si Huayuan ...... Now that we are caught between two sides, what should we do? ”
The prince's face was extremely cold.
He resisted the manic anger in his heart, closed his eyes, and tried his best to think of a countermeasure.
After a long time, he opened his eyes and said gloomily: "Si Huayuan's side, if they really come for the secret passage, and bring so many people, it is a foregone conclusion, and it is useless to do anything, this palace ...... Will find another way. ”
As he spoke, he attached it to the ear of Gonggong Lu, and ordered in a low voice: "You go out of the palace in person, bring the palace edict to Li Weishu, and let him arrest ......someone for the palace."
Eventually, the sound grew inaudible.
The more Grandpa Lu listened, the brighter his eyes became, and when he heard the end, he bowed down and said goodbye, turned around and walked quickly towards the outside of the palace.
After he left, the prince dusted off his sleeves, straightened his clothes, turned around, and walked lightly into the Taiji Palace.
The Tai Chi Hall was as silent as ever.
Although the sun was shining outside, it was separated by the heavy curtains inside the hall.
Although there were a few candles burning in the temple, it was even darker and more lifeless.
The prince silently walked into the dormitory.
A woman in a blue robe with a hairpin on her head was sitting on the edge of the bed with her back to her.
The low sound of chanting, reverently chanted from the woman's mouth, echoed in the silent dormitory.
On the bed, the emperor's sallow face, withered and emaciated, looked lifeless.
The prince walked behind the woman and paused.
He stood by his hands and listened intently to the chanting.
Until the sound of chanting gradually became inaudible—
The woman sighed, put down the beads in her hand, and turned around.
She has eyebrows and eyes that are somewhat similar to those of the prince and Chu Yi, and although her temperament is gentle and virtuous, she is not weak.
It is the queen of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the queen of the crown prince and Chu Yi - Xiao Jin.
"Xin'er."
The queen raised her eyes to look at the crown prince and asked softly: "From morning to this moment, you have been in and out several times, but what is the matter?" Your father and emperor are here, there is a queen mother, you don't need to worry about it, if there is anything, you can go. ”
When the prince heard this, he moved his lips, and his originally warm face was full of embarrassment, with a look of wanting to say something and stopping.
When the queen saw him like this, she was surprised and asked, "What?" But what's going on? ”
The prince gritted his teeth, lowered his eyes, lifted the feet of his robe, knelt on the ground, and said with a crying voice: "The queen mother, the son is not filial, there is something that the minister does not know what to do, please save the son and son, please save the queen mother......
The queen's face was solemn: "What is the matter, you can tell me and listen to it......"

At the same time, outside the Sihua Garden.
Chu Yi and the people in the public court of Jingzhao Mansion rushed to the gate of Sihua Garden, and saw the guards of the East Palace, the people, and a group of pigs, chasing after me by the embankment of Yuxing Lake, and they were in a mess.
The sound of the pig being killed, the shouts of the people, and the shouts of the guards came and went, so it was not lively.
Those courtiers, who had never seen such a battle, were all dumbfounded.
Only Chu Yi, with a pair of phoenix eyes, sharply captured the secret guards who were mixed in the crowd, those secret guards who used hidden weapons to drive away the pigs, and the shadow guards who didn't know what to do under the wall.
Not only that, Chu Yi could see at a glance the beautiful figure of Shen Shu standing in front of the gauze tent on the high slope in the distance.
It's just that what makes Chu Yi feel extremely obstructive is-
There was also a long figure, standing side by side with Shen Shu.
Chu Zhan.
Although they were too far away, Chu Yi couldn't see their expressions clearly, but he could feel that they were talking harmoniously.
Chu Yi looked at Chu Zhan coldly.
If vision can kill, Chu Zhan at this moment has probably become a sieve full of holes.
At the same time that Chu Yi was looking at Chu Zhan, Chu Zhan was also looking at Chu Yi.
"Tsk, King Yi actually brought the people of the three divisions and the Yushitai."
After Chu Zhan finished speaking, he shook off the folding fan and deliberately moved half a step next to Shen Shu.
Although it is not close, it looks like it is standing very close from a distance.
Shen Shu noticed his movements, and instinctively wanted to take a step and retreat to the side-
saw Chu Zhan come up, cover her and his own faces with a folding fan, and said in a low voice: "It's almost time, you cover me, I'll send a signal to the dark guards, let them drive the pigs away, so that the shadow guards can do it." ”
When Shen Shu heard this, he didn't doubt him, and retracted his step: "How do you cover?" ”
"Just stand still."
After Chu Zhan finished speaking, he took out a special bamboo whistle from his sleeve pocket and blew it.
Chu Yi watched Chu Zhan's series of extremely provocative actions from a distance, and his phoenix eyes were as deep as the sea.
He was about to walk towards them—
Suddenly, he keenly heard a bamboo whistle like a cicada chirping, coming from the direction of Chu Zhan.
Chu Yi paused.
He swept towards the crowd as if he felt something, and saw that the secret guards who were mixed in the crowd were quickly using hidden weapons to drive those pigs to the opposite place of Sihua Garden.
Where the pigs run, the crowd goes.
But in a few breaths, the people and pigs under the outer wall were scattered cleanly.
Chu Yi looked at his own shadow guard who was lighting something with a fire fold at the base of the wall, and his heart was suddenly in his heart.
He took a deep look at Chu Zhan, who was hiding behind the folding fan, and turned around and walked back to those courtiers.
At this moment—
The courtiers were standing at the gate of Sihua Garden, asking something to an attendant of the East Palace.
When Chu Yi walked to them, he heard the chamberlain say: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been taking care of the emperor in the Taiji Hall during the day for the past few days, entering the palace every hour and returning at night. If you would like to see Your Highness, please leave your name. ”
"Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in the palace, what is the matter with giving food and meat today?" An imperial historian asked curiously.
A blank look flashed across the waiter's face.
However, before he could speak—
"Bang! Boom! Boom! ”
Suddenly, three loud explosions came from inside the outer wall on the side of Sihua Garden.
The noise and shouting stopped abruptly because of the explosion.
Even the screaming pigs spread their hooves and fled in all directions.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the place where the explosion was heard.
"Boom-"
An entire wall collapsed with a bang.
Under the wall, the head is exposed, and there is no time to fill in the earth, an extremely deep secret passage.
