Hasushi originally thought that this matter would not be known so quickly, but on the third day, it was reported.

"How can it be so fast?" Lianzhi looked at Wen Zhiyan, she had already returned to the East Palace yesterday, and now it was Jing Ci who was taking care of Wen Zhiqian in the Five Princes' Mansion, Wen Zhiyuan had just gone to see Wen Zhiqian coming back today, and found that this matter had spread all over the harem, and the people would soon know about it if it went on like this.

"We will all be wrong about what our father meant, and my father hid this matter in the first place in order to spread it today." Wen Zhiyu sneered, "Father really took advantage of this matter thoroughly. ”

"Hide it from the others, summon Qi Guogong first, and let Qi Guogong think about what he should pay to suppress this matter. But now the emperor felt that the price given by Qi Guogong was not enough, so he released the news and forced Qi Guogong to comply. Lianzhi asked, "I didn't know that the emperor was acting in this way before, but every time it opened my eyes, he used everything he could." ”

At this moment, Wen Yunxi rushed into the East Palace, and her voice could be heard outside the door: "Brother Prince, what is going on with my brother?" ”

When Wen Yunxi entered the door, she saw Lian Zhi and Wen Zhiyu with heavy faces, and she sighed in her heart: "Could it be that my brother was really assassinated?" ”

Lianzhi nodded: "Yes, just two days ago, the crown prince and I went to attend General Su's birthday banquet, and when we returned to the palace in the evening, His Royal Highness was assassinated, and we happened to pass by to save His Royal Highness at that time." ”

Hearing the news before, Wen Yunxi thought that this matter was fake, but now that she heard Lianzhi say this, the last trace of expectation in her heart was also broken: "How can this be, how is my brother doing now?" ”

"The injury has stabilized." Lianzhi replied, "Don't worry, we have been taking care of the Five Princes' Mansion for the past two days, and we will come back after making sure that the Five Princes have nothing to do." ”

"My brother went away at the door of death, and my mother and I didn't know anything." Wen Yunxi's eyes were dark, and she almost fainted.

Lian Zhi helped Wen Yunxi sit down: "You can relax, it's okay." ”

"It's been two days since my brother was assassinated, and my father has refused to tell us for so long, is he looking for a murderer for my brother?" Wen Yunxi grabbed Lianzhi's hand and asked urgently, "Has the murderer been caught?" ”

Lian Zhi glanced at Wen Zhiyu, and Wen Zhiyu spoke: "You don't have to worry about this matter. ”

"That's the murderer didn't catch it." Wen Yunxi's eyes suddenly dimmed, she saw that Lian Zhi and Wen Zhiyu had an unspeakable appearance, and guessed, "Could it be that the murderer knows who it is, but the father can't punish it, so he will suppress this matter?" ”

"Yunxi, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics." Wen Zhiyu suddenly became stern, "Don't think about things that shouldn't be considered." In a few days, I will take you to see the fifth brother. ”

Wen Zhiyu asked Wen Yunxi not to meddle in this matter, in order to protect her, at least to protect Wen Yunxi.

"I want to get out of the palace." Wen Yunxi didn't mention the murderer again.

Lianzhi spoke: "I'll go with you." ”

……

Concubine Shu took Shuyi to the imperial study and wanted to see Wen Xize, but was stopped by the eunuch at the door: "Concubine Shu, the emperor said that no one will be seen now." ”

"You passed it on to the emperor, and said that the palace heard that the five princes had an accident, so the imperial study went on this trip, hoping that the emperor could see the palace." Concubine Shu added, "This palace knows that it shouldn't disturb the emperor, and now it's helpless." ”

The eunuch did not go back to the emperor: "Niangniang, you have also been embarrassed by the minions, and the emperor said that no one will be seen." ”

Qi Guogong came over at this time: "Weichen asks to see the emperor." ”

After Qi Guogong knew that the news of Wen Zhiqi's assassination came out, he rushed to the imperial study as soon as possible, and the emperor was now waiting for him inside. If he doesn't make up his mind, I'm afraid he really won't be able to keep Qi Zhaoyu.

"Grandpa Guo, please come inside." The little eunuch invited Qi Guogong in.

Concubine Shu asked, "Why can the Duke of Qi enter but not the palace?" ”

The little eunuch replied: "Concubine Shu, the Duke of Qi is here for state affairs, and the emperor naturally wants to see him." ”

Concubine Shu looked at the door of the imperial study, which had been closed after Qi Guogong entered: "Since the emperor is so busy with state affairs, the palace is waiting for him here, to see when the emperor will have time to see the palace." ”

Concubine Shu is forcing the emperor, and the little eunuch can't drive Concubine Shu away, so she can only retreat aside, as long as Concubine Shu doesn't enter the door of the imperial study, then this matter has nothing to do with him.

The little eunuch glanced at the concubine standing at the door, and sighed in his heart, why is the concubine so ignorant this time, can't you see that the emperor doesn't want to see her?

When Qi Hengjiang entered the imperial study, he found that Wen Xize was the only one inside, and he saluted Wen Xize: "Weichen see the emperor." ”

"Get up." Wen Xize spoke.

Qi Hengjiang got up: "Your Majesty, the ministers have thought a lot in the past two days, the courtiers have been willful and reckless since they were children, this time it was an unintentional move, and I hope that the emperor will open up the Internet." ”

"This case was handed over to Dali Temple, but it can be big or small, how do you want to choose it?"

"The minister hopes that the emperor will spare Zhaoyu's life."

"Then whether this brand can be taken back depends on the sincerity of Qi Guogong." Wen Xize threw the sign representing the Duke of Qi that he had searched from the assassin on the table, and Qi Hengjiang glanced at the token and sighed.

Now, it is not only to protect Qi Zhaoyu, but also to protect the Qi family, with this token, Qi Zhaoyu's personal behavior is to represent the Qi family, so that the Qi family has a heart of disobedience in the eyes of the world......

Lianzhi and Wen Yunxi walked to the palace gate, but they were blocked in their way.

The soldier guarding the door said expressionlessly: "The emperor has an order that the concubine and the sixth princess are not allowed to leave the palace for half a step." ”

Wen Yunxi didn't expect that she would be stopped: "This princess is going out of the palace to see the Fifth Highness, who dares to stop her?" ”

"The sixth princess, the subordinates are also acting on orders, I hope the sixth princess will not be embarrassed. I really want to know the situation of the Fifth Highness, the crown princess can leave the palace and come back to inform you. ”

"So Princess Ben can't even get out of the palace gate now?" Wen Yunxi asked.

The soldier didn't answer, and Lian Zhi grabbed Wen Yunxi: "Since that's the case, let's go back first." ”

Lianzhi helped Wen Yunxi to walk back: "Yunxi, the emperor doesn't want you and Concubine Shu to leave the palace, let's go back first." ”

"Who the hell is it?" Wen Yunxi suddenly asked, she stopped and looked at Lianzhi, and her eyes were stubborn without an answer, "Who is the murderer who let my father defend them so much, and even refused to let my mother and my concubine go out of the palace to see my brother." ”

Lian Zhi hesitated to speak, and Wen Yunxi spoke again: "Since you are so embarrassed, let me guess?" My brother has always been not in the court, and it is impossible to have any enemies, but recently because of repeated quarrels with the Qi family, the Qi family has always been bold and reckless, and he has long been dissatisfied with his brother, is it the Qi family? ”

Lian Zhi nodded: "This matter was done by the Qi family, and the emperor doesn't want to protect the Qi family......"

Before Lianzhi finished speaking, Wen Yunxi interrupted her: "Father didn't want to protect the Qi family, because Father was waiting for the Qi family to make a mistake. Now that the Qi family has committed the great crime of assassinating the prince, it is too late for the father to be happy, and now the father is only thinking about how to use this matter to deal with the Qi family, how can he still take care of our thoughts? ”

"Yunxi." Lian Zhi shouted, "Some things are doomed to death from the beginning. ”

"Even you and the prince's brother can't do anything?"

"There is a way, now that the matter is known to everyone, and then the evidence of the Qi family's assassination of the Fifth Highness is present, the Qi family will definitely not be able to escape." Lian Zhi asked, "If that's the case, the Qi suburbs behind the Qi family will always be a big trouble for Western Chu. ”

Wen Yunxi raised her head, the sky was full of dark clouds, and she looked like it was about to rain: "So my brother can only suffer this time." ”

"With the emperor's idea, it is possible to take back the fiefdom of Qijiao in the future."

"I know that my father wants to use this incident to stop the Qi family, and my brother, as the prince of Western Chu, has the responsibility to do his best for the country. But how could my father be so ruthless, he didn't even let me go out of the palace to see my brother? ”

"Things have come to this point, let's go back." Lianzhi persuaded.

"I want to go to you for a while, I can't be seen by my mother now, and I must not let my mother know that my father won't let us leave the palace." At this time, Wen Yunxi also thought that this matter could not be known by Concubine Shu.

Lianzhi nodded: "Concubine Shuniang really can't know about this, you can go back to the East Palace with me first." ”

Qi Guogong stayed in the imperial study for nearly two hours and came out, and after he went out, he found that Concubine Shu was still waiting outside, and he looked at her coldly and left.

Xiao Quanzi went in to serve tea, and as soon as he put down the teacup, he heard Wen Xize ask, "Is Concubine Shu still waiting outside the door?" ”

"Yes, Concubine Niangniang looks very stubborn this time, I'm afraid she won't leave if she doesn't get an answer." Xiao Quanzi replied.

Wen Xize thought for a moment: "I won't see her." ”

Xiao Quanzi asked: "Your Majesty, it's not a way for Concubine Shu to be at the door." ”

Wen Xize had just received a satisfactory reply from Qi Guogong, and he was in a good mood: "Concubine Shu has a soft temperament, and if she waits any longer, she should go back." ”

Wen Xize didn't take Concubine Shu to heart at all, and directly began to review the folds, Xiao Quanzi had no choice but to retreat first.
