Although it had already been confirmed, when he really confirmed it, he was still a little dazed.

"It's true!"

Chu Jiyao was demented.

The queen glanced at him disdainfully, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly, "In the future, you, the prince of the empire, have a long way to go!" ”

Chu Jiyao naturally knew that the queen was sarcastically mocking him, and the responsibilities he would face and bear when he became the prince at this stormy moment were not comparable to those in the past when he was stable.

The most important thing is, what should he do after the Ninth Prince's physique is revealed?

"I don't have to worry about this."

"Second question?" The queen asked him lightly.

Chu Jiyao collected his emotions and continued to speak only after half a sound.

"Who the hell are you?"

From the lord of the Rui Palace, to the queen of the empire, the princess almost ascended the throne directly at a speed that ordinary people could not understand, and became the most noble woman in the empire.

Everyone was against this matter back then, but Emperor Renxiao still insisted on going his own way.

It was also the toughest since he took the throne, and no one was allowed to say anything at all.

Later, Rui Wangfu and Emperor Renxiao both announced to the outside world, saying that Qiyue was the adopted daughter of Rui Wangfu.

It can be regarded as temporarily calming down the matter, but Chu Jiyao doesn't believe it.

Plus the performance of the moon during this time.

It makes people even more suspicious.

"Don't you know who I am?"

"I'm asking you who you really are." Chu Jiyao deliberately emphasized such a sentence.

For his too serious attitude, the queen looked at him lightly.

"Zhuyue, the lord of Qiyue of Rui Wang's Mansion."

"I don't believe it." Chu Jiyao looked at her indifferently.

"If you are really the daughter of King Rui, how can your father marry you? How dare they marry you? ”

King Rui and Emperor Renxiao are half-brothers, and his daughter is married to his uncle, which is also outrageous.

There would be no such marriage among ordinary people in the empire, let alone an emperor.

"Sometimes, it's easier to believe a lie, but it's the truth, and no one dares to believe it!"

"Alright, there's one last question, you ask!"

The queen did not give him extra time to think.

Chu Jiyao was very shocked in his heart, if Zhu Yue didn't lie to him, then the queen and King Rui were really father and daughter.

But what is the reason for all this?

There was no time for him to think about it.

"Okay, last question, what is your relationship with the Empress Dowager?"

"Hehe, this time you finally asked a question that interests me!"

Speaking of this queen, I am also interested.

"Do you think the Empress Dowager is human?"

"Why?" Chu Jiyao frowned, a little unsure of what she was talking about.

"Don't you think she's an old youkai? Do you know how old she is? ”

The queen asked two questions in a row, and Chu Jiyao was speechless.

Truly.

The Empress Dowager is at least sixty or seventy years old, but her appearance has always remained in her twenties and thirties.

Including sounds, gestures, everything seems to stop there.

The years seem to have no confirmation in her.

But no one dared to question her identity and status.

Just because she is the most noble person in the empire, and she is also the oldest in the ranks.

"What the hell are you trying to say?"

These things are known to all the people in the entire empire and even in the five countries and ten places.

Before the Empress Dowager married into the empire, she had always been like this.

If there is anyone in this world who knows her age, it is the late Lao Yan Wang.

At this moment, the queen actually mentioned this, and she had to let it out to be suspicious.

"What do I want to say? What can I say? ”

The queen stood up with a wave of her sleeves.

Walked under the window.

Looking at the deep night sky for a long time, Chu Jiyao didn't urge her.

"All I can tell you is that all my power comes from her!"

A long, long time later, just when Chu Jiyao thought that the queen would not answer him, she spoke.

"What do you mean by that?" Chu Jiyao felt that he shouldn't have come to the queen tonight at all.

Knowing, thinking, knowing, it's all terrible.

The queen turned her head and said with a smile, "This is your fourth question, but this palace promised to provide you with three answers for free!" ”

"If you still need my answer, then exchange it for something of equal value!"

"Do you want to tell me that in this palace change, everything here is presided over by the Empress Dowager? Even you're just a pawn of hers? ”

The queen naturally wouldn't answer him, but Chu Jiyao had already gotten the answer he wanted.

Walking under the night moon in winter, Chu Jiyao tightened his coat and felt more and more cold.

The news he had just gotten was too terrifying, and he needed to sort it out.

First of all, there is no need for the queen to lie at this time, she wants to leave the palace because she wants to escape the control of the queen mother.

Then, she said that the source of all power comes from the Empress Dowager.

Those psychics, naturally, too.

Why did the Empress Dowager command so many magicians?

She has been cultivating outside for many years, ignoring the affairs of the red dust, how can she have such great ability?

The most important point is that Chu Jiyao can't figure it out, what is the Empress Dowager doing all this for? What is her purpose?

Does my father know about this? If not, should he tell him?

I didn't know these things before, I used to feel very lonely when I went out, but after knowing these things, he felt very lonely.

There was no one to talk to, no one to help him.

One wrong step is a recipe for disaster.

Even if he is the crown prince of the empire at the moment, his father has made him the prince at this moment, which itself has a certain meaning.

Who can he go to?

Suddenly, Chu Ji looked somewhere outside the palace.

Finally strode away.

The door of the Nine Kings Mansion, which had been closed for a few days, was knocked open, and Steward Mu yawned and welcomed Chu Jiyao in.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, is there something wrong with you at such a late hour?"

"My lord hasn't woken up yet!"

Steward Mu's eight eyes looked at him unpleasantly, after all, this so-called His Royal Highness the Crown Prince used to be the one who wanted to rob the princess with the prince.

At that time, the princess had already married the prince, but he still didn't give up and made a lot of trouble.

Now that the prince is unwell and is in a coma, the prince came to the palace in the middle of the night to see the princess?

If this doesn't work, he must stop it.

Thinking of this, Steward Mu added again, "My princess is taking care of my princess day and night!" ”

Chu Jiyao glanced at him lightly, how could he not know the careful thoughts of this old housekeeper.

"That's right, this palace is here to find the Ninth Princess!"

Steward Mu's expression changed instantly.

It's over, what he said just now was wrong, it should be said that the princess had already fallen asleep.

"Lead the way!" Without waiting for Steward Mu to refuse, Chu Jiyao walked forward first, he had also been to the Nine Kings Mansion a few times, and he was familiar with the road.

Jinghua Garden, in the courtyard where the Nine Princes lived.

When Chu Jiyao bargained with Steward Mu again and again, he came to the house.

The maid next to her knocked on the door a few times, but there was no movement, and finally Steward Mu was more worried, so he pushed the door in at the end, and found out.

The dear princess of his family actually lay on the soft couch and fell asleep.

He also told Chu Jiyao that she was taking care of the prince without undressing.

"It seems that your princess is really tired!"

Chu Jiyao whispered.

"Yes, so if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has anything to do, he can come back another day!"

Steward Mu replied calmly.

"It's okay, I won't disturb your princess's rest, wait for her here for a while!"

"The housekeeper doesn't have to accompany me again, I am very familiar with your princess, you don't have to be polite, you go down and rest first!"

Steward Mu and the others were all staring at him speechlessly.

It seems that now these masters are one or two can't figure out their identities.

Just the one in front of him, but His Royal Highness the Prince, who is dignified in the empire, stayed in his uncle's room in the middle of the night, not to mention, his aunt was still resting here, and he didn't shy away from it.

Besides, who was polite to you?

Who wants to accompany you? If it weren't for the fear that my princess would wake up and not find someone to serve, they would have gone down a long time ago.

They didn't move, they were there like a pestle of wood, Chu Jiyao didn't care, shook his head slightly, and then picked up the tea cup on the table next to him and blew it lightly twice.

"It's a little cold, help the palace change the pot hot!"

All......

Half an hour later, they and Chu Jiyao stared at each other with wide eyes, without waiting for Xiao Ting to wake up.

But I waited for another piece of good news.

The Nine Princes woke up.

After falling asleep for a few days, no one could find out what illness he had, Steward Mu was so anxious that the emperor took the imperial doctor in the palace around as if he were going through the motions, but there was still no progress.

If Xiao Ting hadn't told Steward Mu that she had a way, she would have gone outside to ask for a famous doctor no matter what the family had.

"Lord Wang, you are awake!"

The Nine Princes woke up, their eyes turned around the people around them, and when they saw Chu Jiyao again, they were slightly stunned, but then they looked away again, and they didn't settle down until they found Xiao Ting.

"What's wrong with the princess?"

He lifted the quilt and got out of bed directly and walked in front of Xiao Ting.

Steward Mu hurriedly explained, "Don't worry, the princess is just asleep, she has been taking care of you sleeplessly these days, and she is very worried!" ”

After hearing this, the ninth prince didn't give him any response, leaned over and picked up Xiao Ting, then put her back on the bed, helped her tuck the quilt, and then turned to look at the others.

"Follow me!"

The Ninth Prince casually took a coat and draped it on his body, and nodded at Chu Jiyao.

At the same time, he also instructed Steward Mu to let people take care of Xiao Ting.

"You are not in the palace in the middle of the night, what is the matter with coming to my Nine Kings' Mansion?"

The Ninth Prince asked unhurriedly and glanced up at him.

"I know something today, I don't know who to talk to!"

Because of Xiao Ting's relationship, there is almost no intersection between Chu Jiyao and the Nine Princes.

Chu Jiyao has never admitted that Xiao Ting and the Nine Princes are very compatible.

In his imagination, the two of them are not people at all, and they cannot be compared.

However, he couldn't say that the Nine Princes were not worthy of Xiao Ting, such a thing.

Whether he admits it it or not, the Nine Princes are indeed blessed.
