Early the next morning, when Chu Lingyu convened the ministers to discuss the matter, he saw that the expressions on the faces of the ministers were different, and a strong question suddenly surged in his heart.

"Why do you look at Prince Ben with such eyes? Could it be that there is something on the face of the crown prince? ”

As he spoke, Chu Lingyu touched his face with his hand and put his slender fingers in front of his eyes, but he didn't see any unclean things on his fingers.

"This ......"

The ministers below, you look at me, I look at you, it seems that they are all speechless.

"What the hell is going on?"

The more this was the case, the more Chu Lingyu's curiosity was aroused, and he couldn't help frowning, looking at the few adults in front of him with a displeased expression.

The former dynasty was not peaceful, and the harem was not very peaceful.

Early this morning, Jing Yuan was going to Fengyi Palace to say goodbye to the queen, but the little eunuchs and palace maids he met on the road were pointing at him in secret, and when he turned his head to look, he found that everyone pretended to be nothing, as if Fang Cai's guidance was just their own illusion.

"What's going on?"

Jing Yuan also subconsciously touched his cheek, and asked Biru in surprise: "Could it be that there is something dirty on Princess Yuan's face?" ”

It can be seen that they are brothers and sisters with Chu Lingyu, and even the words asked are the same.

"No......"

Biru also looked surprised, thought about it, turned around suddenly, and saw a submissive little palace maid behind her, Biru didn't say a word, and directly pulled the little palace maid in front of Jing Yuan.

"Say, what are you guys talking about secretly?"

Bi Ru raised her eyebrows and shouted sharply at the little palace maid.

The little palace maid was suddenly frightened like chaff, and she only knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing to Jingyuan: "The princess spares her life, the princess spares her life!" The slave and maid don't know anything, so beg the princess not to ask the slave and maid ......"

Jing Yuan frowned, and looked at the little palace maid condescendingly: "This princess hasn't asked yet, how do you know what this princess is asking?" I also beg this princess not to ask you, it can be seen that you do know something, so don't hurry up and recruit from the truth! ”

"Princess, princess is merciful, beg, beg princess ......"

The little palace maid stammered, who expected that before the words could be spoken, Jing Yuan suddenly saw a circle of water stains on the ground, sighed in his heart, waved his hand to the little palace maid, and said with a disgusted face: "That's it, you can retreat!" ”

The little palace maid suddenly seemed to be amnestied, and kowtowed to Jing Yuan three times, and then fled in front of Jing Yuan as if flying.

"Princess, why do slaves and maids look at them strangely? What's going on? ”

Looking at the strength of the little palace maid who kowtowed, Bi Ru felt that her forehead was also hurting, red, and with a crisp voice, Bi Ru even had some doubts about whether she had broken her brain.

"If I knew, would I be here with the same question marks as you?"

Jing Yuan shrugged his shoulders, looked at the back of the little palace maid leaving, and the stains left on the ground, sighed softly, and said: "Anyway, I can always inquire about it, but looking at the way she looked just now, I am afraid that this matter is very involved and has a great stake......

Now is a critical moment when the throne is empty, although Jing Yuan is in the harem, he has long heard that there is a minister who entrusted all the major affairs of the country to the second prince Chu Linghong because Chu Aotian left before leaving, and the clear support for Chu Linghong to succeed to the throne is that His Royal Highness the crown prince is really thin, if the prince succeeds to the throne, there is no time, and the sky of the Li Kingdom will change again.

This remark can be described as a heart-wrenching statement, Jing Yuan and the queen were furious when they heard it, not to mention Chu Lingyu himself.

It's only been a night, and the two sides are in the stage of stalemate, so any wind and grass is a great deal for Jing Yuan.

"Princess, don't worry, let's go to Fengyi Palace to say hello to the queen first."

Biru pursed her lips and reminded in a low voice.

"Hmm."

Jing Yuan replied as if he didn't have anything, thinking that if today's news is to meet in Fengyi Palace, I can't tell what the queen can know?

immediately made up his mind, and hurriedly went to Fengyi Palace with Biru.

It's just that as soon as he arrived outside the door of Fengyi Palace, he listened to the crying inside, coupled with the sound of whipping and scolding from time to time, which made Jing Yuan extremely surprised.

The queen mother has always been lenient with others, why did she get so angry today and directly teach her subordinates a lesson in Fengyi Palace?

Besides, listening to the movement inside, I'm afraid it's not a trivial matter for one or two people......

Thinking of this, Jing Yuan pursed his lips, exchanged a look with Bi Ru, and slowly walked into the door.

"Jing Yuan greets the queen mother."

Jing Yuan obediently and skillfully saluted the queen, and secretly raised his eyes, only to see that the queen's face was very angry, even if he saw Jing Yuan, he only barely hooked the corners of his lips, and said in a low voice: "It's Jing Yuan, get up." ”

Jing Yuan stood up with his eyebrows lowered, came to the queen's side, and asked cautiously, "Who made the queen mother so angry?" It's so ignorant, the queen mother must teach them a good lesson......"

"You don't have to worry about this matter, it's just some foul language, which will save your ears!"

The queen's eyes were full of anger, and she gritted her teeth and said: "There are just some villains who want to plot the throne, so they began to spread rumors all over the world, Jing Yuan, the queen mother will naturally deal with these things, if you have nothing to do, retreat first, don't visit the door casually these days, you can rest assured, the queen mother and the prince's brother will definitely protect you, even if your father is gone, the queen mother will guard this great Li country for him!" ”

Thinking of the sudden death of his father, a trace of sadness flashed in Jing Yuan's eyes, but more attention was attracted by what the queen had just said.

"I don't know what kind of rumor it is? Queen Mother, you can talk to Jing Yuan, I can't say that Jing Yuan can also ...... for you."

After thinking about it again and again, Jing Yuan cautiously opened his mouth, but before he finished speaking, he was strongly interrupted by the queen.

"Bengong has already told you, don't meddle in this matter, is it possible that even you have to take Bengong's words as a deaf ear?!"

Unexpectedly, the queen's face suddenly became ugly, she slapped the table with her hand, and shouted loudly: "Go back to your Limo Palace, and you will not be allowed to go out of the gate of Limo Palace without being summoned by this palace!" ”

"Yes......"

Jing Yuan was shocked in his heart, he had never seen his mother so angry, even the last time he admitted that he had done something about Jing Yi's marriage, the queen had never scolded herself like this!

Hurriedly took Biru out of the palace gate of Fengyi Palace, stood a little, and saw Caihe panting and chasing out.

"I knew you could read the look in this princess's eyes!"

Jing Yuan smiled and said to Cai He.

It's just that Caihe's face didn't have a trace of relaxation, pursed his lips, looked around, and then pulled Jing Yuan to a hidden place, and whispered the reason why the queen was angry early in the morning.

It turned out that I don't know where it came from, saying that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was not the emperor himself, but a child born to the queen when she was young, having an affair with others, and this matter was said to have a nose and eyes, and it immediately spread in the palace.

"It's a ridiculous joke!"

was surprised at first, and then Jing Yuan said with an incredulous face: "Could it be that the queen mother is so angry because of such rumors?" How can a stupid person believe it? If the prince's brother is not the son of his father, whose son will he be? Besides, the father and the queen mother are deeply in love, how could the queen mother betray her father? The most critical point is that if the prince's brother is not his father's flesh and blood, how can his father make the prince's brother the prince? This rumor is simply ridiculous! ”

"Who's to say it isn't!"

Caihe sighed: "If it is in the past, such rumors will definitely be ignored by the queen mother, the clear person will be clear, then the villain will make trouble for a while, there is no follow-up, but now is the extraordinary period of competition for the throne, if the queen mother ignores it, it will make people say that it is a weak heart, the queen mother said that her reputation does not matter, if it humiliates His Royal Highness the prince, it is her fault, so early in the morning, the queen mother began to inquire about the source of rumors in the palace......"

"Do you still need to check this?"

Jing Yuan sneered: "It must be a good thing done by the second prince and the master of the Tilting Cloud Palace!" The queen mother just needs to check here, and she can't keep it wrong! It's just that I wonder in my heart, why do so many people believe such a non-existent thing? ”

As soon as the words fell, a touch of embarrassment suddenly flashed on Caihe's face, and when Jing Yuan saw this, his heart suddenly "chuckled", and hurriedly asked, "Could it be that there is something else I don't know?" Caihe, you can make it clear to me 1510! ”

A hint of hesitation flashed in Caihe's eyes, and after a while, he lowered his voice and leaned into Jing Yuan's ear and said: "The bad is bad here, when the queen mother was young, she was engaged to a cousin in the family, and then the cousin slept in the willows, and it was very unsuccessful, and the queen's father and mother made the decision to dissolve the marriage, and then the yin and yang were wrong, and the mother and the emperor met, and the two went through so many ups and downs hand in hand......"

"So, someone grabbed that 'cousin' to slander the queen mother?"

Jing Yuan gritted his teeth and asked with a look of resentment.

"yes!"

Cai He sighed heavily: "I heard that the young master drank too much wine last night, and made a big deal in a wine shop, saying that his son was about to ascend the throne as emperor, which attracted many people to come and watch, and the news spread among the people......"

"And where is this scoundrel now? Since he can say such a thing, there must be someone behind him, as long as he catches the person behind him, the truth will naturally be revealed, and he will return the innocence of the queen mother and the prince's brother! ”

Jing Yuan clenched his fists and said in a low voice.

"The bad is here!"

Caihe sighed again: "Originally, Jing Zhaoyin wanted to arrest this person, but this person took advantage of the chaos of people and slipped away!" ”
