Chapter 164: Sudden Enlightenment
"I see, you go down." Xie Tianrui said lightly.
The man silently saluted Xie Tianrui and flew away. After the person left, Xie Tianrui looked at the information booklet, he naturally knew that what could be found in it was what could be found now, if it was the queen who did something in private, it would be necessary to investigate the things of the year in a targeted manner.
Some things cannot be found out by casual investigation, for example, many of the things that happened back then have passed away, and it is not easy to know.
Xie Tianrui's slender hand slowly lifted the yellowed paper, his sharp eyes swept over, and he quickly went through dozens of pages of information at a glance, and everything was in Xie Tianrui's mind.
The information can be said to be very detailed, with such detailed information, Xie Tianrui naturally knows that the people below must have spent a lot of effort.
"It turns out that the former queen is actually the sister of the concubine? Why has I never heard my mother mention it? Xie Tianrui was really a little puzzled.
He didn't expect that the emperor's blockade of all the news of the former queen would have reached such a point, if it weren't for the existence of the eldest prince, I am afraid that no one would even know about the existence of the former queen.
The former queen and the queen are rumored to be friendly with each other? Not only a close friend in the doir, but also a good friend in the palace? Hum! How could Xie Tianrui believe such nonsense.
Because of the emperor's preference for him, he has been in and out of the palace a lot since he was a child, and he doesn't know how much he has seen the private affairs in the harem, how can he still believe such nonsense? You know, the palace is a big dye vat, and people are always changing.
Besides, if it weren't for the queen's means, how could it be that the emperor cared so much about the former queen, and after the death of the former queen, how could the emperor help the queen sit in that position?
The information records in detail the past that many people don't know, including the grievances between the former queen and the queen, and what means the queen used against the former queen to make the former queen die.
You must know that the queen's methods more than ten years ago were still quite immature, leaving a lot of tricks. It's just that no one suspected that there was a problem at the time, and they all thought it was an accident, so no one investigated.
"No wonder the queen has such hatred for Prince Gong's mansion, it turns out that there is really a reason."
Xie Tianrui's eyes were cold, he really didn't expect that today's queen, who is known for her benevolence, filial piety and kindness, would have such a terrible past, especially the grievances between him and his mother's sister, the former queen, who surprised him a little.
Sure enough, how can a woman who has been able to sit on the throne of the queen for a long time since ancient times be so simple? I don't see his aunt and former queen, but in just a few years of queen career, has she been killed by the current queen?
It is not unreasonable for the queen to be in charge of the harem for so many years. After all, his hands were stained with the blood of many people, and he stepped on the bones of many people step by step to that position.
"Mother, my son finally knows now, why do you always tell me to take care of the eldest prince." He muttered to himself, and something gradually became clear in his heart.
Xie Tianrui looked at the information in his hand, it was no longer of any use, the information was just information but not real evidence. There is no human and material evidence, and if you want to deal with the queen, you can only find another way.
He took the materials in his hand and walked to the candlelight, he lit the paper with a fire, and as a puff of black smoke rose, the book was burned up little by little.
Xie Tianrui looked at the cigarette ash in the incense jar and said faintly: "Don't worry, concubine, I will definitely protect the eldest prince." As for the queen's side, if she is safe and secure, it is better not to provoke me; If she continues to know whether she lives or dies, I don't mind teaching her a lesson. β
You know, what if the queen is in the harem? It's not a matter of the emperor's words? Hehe......
Now the emperor's health is not very good, according to his understanding of the emperor, he naturally understands the current situation and situation, and the person who is most likely to compete with Xie Zhengyu for that position is not another prince, or the eldest prince in the Zongren Mansion.
If the queen wants Xie Zhengyu to ascend the throne smoothly, she will definitely want to borrow the Zongren Mansion to get rid of the eldest prince. He didn't care before, but now he naturally didn't mind having his cousin in that position.
It's just that this matter still needs to be planned in secret, and it is not achieved overnight. In addition, now the emperor looks in good shape, and it is not the queen's turn to jump. If the current queen is more happy, the more tragic the result will be when waiting for the queen.
After Xie Tianrui figured out the key nodes, he went directly to the study to find his own Amma, and then the two talked in the study all day. No one knew what the two of them were talking about, but not long after Xie Tianrui left the study, Prince Gong came out of the study and went directly to the princess.
The queen's matter has already made Xie Tianrui have a preliminary plan, and since Prince Gong's Mansion has stood on the opposite side of the queen and wants to help the eldest prince, then the queen will definitely not let go of Prince Gong's Mansion so easily.
After all, what happened at the Mid-Autumn Festival Palace banquet is the best warning, isn't it? So at this critical time, he felt that there must not be any handle in the hands of the queen. You can't give the queen a chance to forcibly place charges on them! After all, the queen is a strong player in this matter, and she has done it I don't know how many times.
But now it seems that the manpower in the palace is a little stretched, after all, there are already people who have to keep an eye on the queen's Kunning Palace all the time, and there are still people who are staring at the queen all the time, so that other aspects of the palace will definitely be missing due to lack of manpower.
Xie Tianrui, who was sitting at the desk, snapped his fingers directly and said, "Now start sending a few more secret guards with strong martial arts and delicate thoughts to the palace to keep an eye on the queen." Once the queen has any trouble, she will report it as soon as possible. The focus is on the Empress and Kunning Palace! β
"Yes, my subordinates understand." A voice drifted in, and no one was in sight. After Xie Tianrui heard the reply, he was satisfied, and he didn't continue to say anything.
Xie Tianrui sat at the table, his pupils constricted, and this was only a preliminary plan at present. To deal with the queen, we still need to think long-term, if it is a large-scale action now, I am afraid that it will arouse the queen's vigilance, and if it startles the snake, some things will be difficult to control at that time.
After dealing with the matter, his eyes were a little dazed, and he seemed to think of a small figure when he looked at the potted plant in front of him. Gradually, that figure slowly coincided with Tang Yining. He always felt as if he was missing something, but what was it?
Tang Yining? Tang Yining! By the way, Xie Tianrui remembered that he had missed something, and that was Tang Yining! At the Mid-Autumn Palace banquet a while ago, Tang Yi would rather defend him and openly confront the queen in public.
In addition, Tang Yining is now his fiancΓ©e, and she is the concubine under the emperor's holy decree. The queen should directly label Tang Yining with the label of Prince Gong's mansion, even if it is not because of Prince Gong's mansion, Tang Yining openly opposes the queen, and the queen will definitely trouble her afterwards.
You know, the queen has been on the top for a long time, how can she put up with the "jumping clown" jumping on her head below? Moreover, the queen is a person who will repay her.
Thinking like this, Xie Tianrui couldn't sit still and wanted to go to Tang Yining. The little guy who had just walked out of the door and had been staying outside and accidentally fell asleep quickly rubbed his eyes, stepped forward, and asked in a low voice, "Little County King, do you have any orders?" β
"What time is it?"
The little guy quickly raised his head and looked at the sky, and then said cautiously: "If you go back to the master, it is already the time of the day, and it will be bright soon." β
It's time, then Tang Yining's little girl should be asleep, right? Forget it, Ming'er will find her again. Thinking like this, Xie Tianrui turned around and entered the house again, closed the door directly, and left a voice: "This king knows." β
Xiao Erzhang was confused, looked at the door that was closed again in front of him, shook his head, and walked back to the position he had just held on, but after a while, his eyes began to be a little unable to open again, and he was half-squinting.
The next day, Tang Yining was busy with the business of the shop in the Forbidden Pavilion as he had in the past. Then I thought about whether I wanted to do a market research or something, so that I could prepare to open a branch of the Forbidden Pavilion Shop.
According to Tang Yining's thoughts, the current business of the Forbidden Pavilion is good, which does not mean that the business of the opened branches can also be good. It is necessary to do market research, and it is still important to choose the location of the shop.
If she doesn't do market research and understand the situation clearly, she always feels a little uneasy, and when she is thinking, someone suddenly interrupts her thoughts.
"Second Miss Tang, the master is looking for you at the inn next door."
When Tang Yining heard this, he looked up directly and found that Xie Tianrui's person was in front of him. Xie Tianrui looking for her? Xie Tianrui never looked for her like this in the past, what the hell is going on? There was a slight dissatisfaction in his heart, but when he thought of Xie Tianrui, maybe something really happened.
"Xiaocui, Xiaoju, you guys are watching in the shop, Miss, I'll be back after a while." Tang Yining explained directly, and left directly without waiting for the two little girls to say anything.
Tang Yining followed to a loft on the second floor of the inn, and when he opened the door, he saw Xie Tianrui sitting by the window drinking tea. Outside the window is the bustling street, and in the attic is a backdrop of elegant scenery.
When she entered, the man closed the door to the room and stood silently outside the door.
"What's wrong? Came to me specifically, what's the matter? Tang Yining asked suspiciously.
Xie Tianrui's face was full of black lines, and he was really direct, straight in. He wanted to talk a little bit about it.
