Chapter 139: Background Exposed

Hearing this, Chu Xi came back to his senses, his eyes fell on the eunuch below, and he slowly opened his mouth for a long time before giving his will.

"Go, pass on my will, just say that I have known the news of the death of the eldest princess, and I am also deeply saddened, but before that, the eldest princess deceived the king, confused the blood of the Shen Xianhe royal family, and turned the daughters of Shen Wei and Huai'an Hou into her own daughters, although it is a great rebellion, but in the credit of the eldest princess who has made great contributions to the court, the merit is too low, I will not pursue it, and the people of the Shen family immediately moved out of the Shen Mansion after organizing the funeral for the eldest princess, there must be no mistake."

"The minions obey."

When the eunuch kneeling below received his message, he kowtowed with relief and withdrew to deliver his message.

Chu Xi sat on the dragon chair, not yet fully accepting the reality in front of him, but he didn't expect that not long after he learned about Shen Xianhe's life experience today, the eldest princess actually died? It made him feel like his fist was hitting cotton.

Previously, he arranged for Chen Han to announce Shen Xianhe's life experience to the world, although he had not issued any holy decree of punishment to the eldest princess, but it was because he had too many scruples and did not dare to rashly attack the eldest princess, but he didn't expect that he didn't even have to do anything to get the result he wanted, so he couldn't come back to his senses for a while.

Now that the eldest princess is dead, there is no possibility for the Shen Mansion to turn over, and Shen Xianhe is in his hands again, as soon as he thinks of this, he can't help but feel hearty in his heart.

Although Shen Xianhe killed the queen mother by mistake before, someone secretly did it and was framed, but because of the accidents and surprises brought by this chain reaction, he began to feel a little less disgusted with this fake "cousin" in his heart, but, despite this, the queen mother also died at her hands, which he couldn't forgive.

"Your Majesty, it has been announced to the world according to your will, after the people heard the news, they blamed the eldest princess, although she was popular before, but because of this mistake, the people have begun to turn against each other and stand on your side."

After dealing with the task ordered by the emperor, Chen Han did not stop for a moment, but returned to the palace non-stop and told the emperor these information that was beneficial to them.

"Very good, you did a good job this time, and when everything is taken care of, I will reward you well."

Chu Xi couldn't hide the happiness in his words.

"Thank you, Lord Longen, the minister didn't do anything, everything is Your Majesty's foresight."

"Okay, now is not the time to discuss this, I guess you also heard the news of the death of the eldest princess on the way back to the palace, right?"

Chu Xi changed his words and began to talk about the current situation.

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister has heard it outside the palace, the minister is here to congratulate Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty is the true dragon son of heaven, and God is naturally on Your Majesty's side."

"Okay, when did you become so eloquent, it's too early to be happy."

"Yes, Your Majesty, you have taught you."

"Now that the eldest princess is dead, since she risked the world's disapproval to pretend to raise Shen Xianhe, she also loves Shen Xianhe more on weekdays, so although she is dead, she will definitely not let me kill Shen Xianhe, she will definitely be prepared and recruited, I want you to go to the prison in person, if anyone dares to break into the prison to save her, everyone who comes will be killed, so that they will not return."

"Yes, Lord's Order."

Chen Han turned around and was about to retreat after receiving the will, but Chu Xi continued to speak and added.

"By the way, I can't let Shen Xianhe die, I still have to rely on her to find out how much power the eldest princess has left? If she's dead, that's not good. ”

"Yes, the minister will not disappoint His Majesty."

"Well, I'll leave these things to you, I'm very relieved, okay, let's go."

"Yes."

When he turned around, a look of disappointment flashed on Chen Han's face, yes, when the emperor gave him an order to go to guard the heavenly prison, he was selfish, he originally wanted to take advantage of the time when those robbers came to save people, and when those robbers came to end those robbers, he would end Shen Xianhe together.

It's just that he didn't expect that she still had some effect, and when she couldn't die yet, he couldn't help but be disappointed.

Looking at Chen Han's retreating back, some obscure emotions flashed in Chu Xi's eyes.

Soon, Shen Xianhe was not the daughter of the eldest princess, but the daughter of Shen Wei and Huai'an Hou, and the news spread, instantly boiling the silent capital.

Because Chu Xi deliberately blocked it, the Empress Dowager was the last to know these news, and when she heard these news, she couldn't stand the stimulation and fainted, plus she had been stimulated and left with sequelae before, so when she heard the news of the death of the eldest princess, and the truth that Shen Xianhe was not her biological granddaughter, she was struck.

The already weak body couldn't withstand these blows, and under the treatment of the imperial doctor, there was still no way to recover, but fortunately, the person was awake.

Chu Xi, who was guarding the Empress Dowager's side, watched the Empress Dowager slowly open her eyes and wake up, although he hated her hand for stretching too long on weekdays, but he was also a grandmother who loved him growing up, and he couldn't help but be happy.

Nervously grabbed the Empress Dowager's hand and asked.

"Grandmother, are you awake? What do you think? What's not uncomfortable? The Imperial Doctor was beside him, and I asked him to come and see it, and the Imperial Physician ....... ”

It's just that before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the Queen Mother.

"Your Majesty, the body of the mourning family, the mourning family knows it in their hearts, don't waste time, let everyone else retreat, the mourning family has something to say to you alone."

"Grandmother, don't worry, let the imperial doctor take a look at your body first, and when you're well, you can say whatever you want, I've always been here with you, don't worry."

The Empress Dowager's sickly face showed old age, and her well-maintained face showed the ravines of life at the moment, and she slowly shook her head with tears.

"No...... The mourning family knows that their time is running out, so the emperor should not comfort the mourning family, let everyone else retreat, the mourning family has something to explain to you. ”

Listening to his grandmother's hoarse voice and looking at the tears in her eyes, Chu Xi was also so sad that tears soaked the corners of his eyes, he held back the sadness in his heart, turned to the people in the room and commanded.

"Stand down, all of you."

"Yes."

The palace people in the house retreated.

"Grandmother, everyone has retreated, what do you want to tell me?"

Hearing this, the Empress Dowager's eyes changed, and she grabbed Chu Xi's hand with her backhand.

"Your Majesty, does Yu'er's death have anything to do with you?"

Chu Xi was trembling by the Empress Dowager's gaze, but fortunately, his eyes were steady, and he did not avoid her gaze at all, but looked at the Empress Dowager firmly.

"Grandmother, I have never assassinated my aunt."

After hearing his answer, the Empress Dowager slowly shed two lines of tears and closed her eyes in pain.

"Yu'er has been very close to the mourning family since she was a child, but a lot of things happened later, the mourning family knows what she loves in her heart, but in order to have too many scruples, she was forced to do what she doesn't like the most, gradually, her relationship with the mourning family still seems to be intimate, but in fact it has become a layer apart, this time, she left suddenly, so that the mourning family can not help but feel the heartache, so that the mourning family can not bear the pain of the white-haired person sending the black-haired person, she is a woman, but she has the courage not to lose to the man, and the most beautiful years are dedicated to the battlefield, the mourning family thinks of these, This heart can't help but throb. ”

Chu Xi listened silently to the Empress Dowager babbling these words, but his heart slowly rose vigilantly, because he was too familiar with this foreshadowing, every time the Empress Dowager needed him to promise something, she would first babble like this, and then use her power to force him to submit.

He lowered his eyes, hiding the sarcasm in his eyes.

"What my grandmother said is that my aunt has indeed made a lot of contributions to this country, and I have always respected her, so after my aunt committed such a big crime of bullying the king, I didn't care about letting her go to the ground."

"Your Majesty, the mourning family has said so much, it is to put aside the family and the country, stand as a mother and pour out the heartache for the departure of her daughter, the mourning family also knows that these things are for you, you have made the greatest forgiveness, but the mourning family still has to beg you for one thing here, for your aunt's sake, ......."

Hearing this, Chu Xi still didn't understand anything, he held back the ridicule in his heart, raised his eyes and looked at the Empress Dowager without emotion, and interrupted her words.

"Grandmother, you said so much, just to let me let Shen Xianhe go, but, have you ever thought that Shen Xianhe is not my aunt's real daughter, and she has no blood relationship with you and me, you saw it with your own eyes after she killed her mother, so do you think I can let her go?"

The Empress Dowager breathed a breath, tears flowed down her face, and she couldn't hide her sadness in her eyes.

"The mourning family knows that she is not Yu'er's daughter, and the mourning family has been concealed for so many years, and the complex emotions are no less than anyone else's, but, despite this, Yu'er has not asked for much in her life, and the only one who has begged the mourning family is just this once, and the mourning family must fulfill her last wish anyway."

Chu Xi felt a burst of grief and indignation in his heart, and the sarcastic look on his face could no longer be hidden.

"Grandmother, I can understand that you are doing this for your aunt, but have you ever thought about my position? The man who died was my own mother! If I can't avenge her, then what face do I have to see her in a hundred years, my aunt can do this for someone who is not related to her, then I am still her own nephew. ”
