Chapter 357: The Royal Conspiracy

Yu Qiuyu was stunned, and the chicken nodded like a peck of rice.

Yeah.

What she wants to ask is about the suicide of the second imperial concubine.

"Why did the second imperial concubine seek death, and you, what did you mean by what you said the day before yesterday?"

Why, Zhao Xuedie and Gong Lewan both said the same thing?

Why did the second imperial concubine die?

Yu Qiuyu now has a series of questions to ask.

"Cloud guard, you go out first."

Zhao Xuedian didn't answer Yu Qiuyu's question, but turned his head to look at the cloud guard.

Yun Guard's body was stunned, and he walked silently towards the door of Zhao Xuedie's courtyard.

He remained silent all the time, and he didn't even intend to ask Zhao Xuedie, why he didn't let him listen here.

Zhao Xuedian also looked at Yun Ruiyi's departing back and was silent for a moment.

When Yun Ruiyi walked a few steps away, Zhao Xuedian suddenly opened his mouth to stop Yun Ruiyi.

"Cloud Guard, do you know why I don't want you to hear it?"

Yu Qiuyu looked at Zhao Xuedi in astonishment.

And Yun Ruiyi also turned her head to look at Zhao Xuedi in surprise, and the surprise on her face was difficult to hide.

He was stunned for a moment before muttering, "Why, don't you want me to hear it?" ”

Do you want him to hear it, another misunderstanding?

Just like in Lingnan.

Misunderstood again that Zhao Xuedie was a ruthless person, and once again alienated Zhao Xuedie because of Zhao Xuedie's viciousness.

Yun Ruiyi may have thought of this, and immediately explained: "Actually, you don't have to worry, I said, if I only believe in you alone in the future, I will definitely do it, and for the rest of my life, I will only believe in you alone, and only be your guard, you don't have to worry that I will misunderstand you again." ”

Zhao Xue folded her lips and pulled away a smile of relief.

Obviously, hearing Yun Ruiyi say this, Zhao Xuedie was very satisfied and happy, but it was also obvious that this was not the reason why Zhao Xuedie let him leave.

"I'm afraid you'll think I'm a horrible child."

Why do they feel that way?

Not only Yun Ruiyi, but even Yu Qiuyu didn't understand.

"I am a child who grew up in the royal family, I have seen a lot of ugliness in the royal family, the death of the second princess, it involves a lot, I am afraid that if I say it, you will feel terrible, I am afraid that it will frighten you, so I dare not say it."

As she spoke, Zhao Xuedian raised her eyes again and looked at Yun Ruiyi, her gaze was sincere and persistent, but it was mixed with some hesitation and struggle.

She herself is conflicted.

Yu Qiuyu observed Yun Ruiyi, and she saw that Yun Ruiyi was obviously relieved after hearing Zhao Xuedie's answer.

This stupid girl turned out to be worried about this.

Yun Ruiyi suddenly walked towards Zhao Xuedie quickly, and suddenly leaned over and hugged Zhao Xuedie.

Forehead!

Yu Qiuyu subconsciously turned his head.

Not suitable for children, not suitable for children.

Zhao Xuedi heard Yun Ruiyi whispering in his ear, "Don't worry." I won't. ”

It's too late for him to feel sorry for his silly girl.

How could he alienate Zhao Xuedie because of what Zhao Xuedi witnessed and experienced?

Zhao Xuedian also hugged him back and nodded with satisfaction.

Yu Qiuyu also thought that the reason why the second princess committed suicide was that she couldn't bear the blow.

When she just heard the news that the second imperial concubine committed suicide, she hadn't thought about why the second imperial concubine committed suicide, and Yu Qiuyu could be considered to have figured it out on the way here.

Long Street punishment kneeling and slapping, humiliation on the street, let alone a glass-hearted person like the second imperial concubine, even an ordinary person may not be able to afford it.

Therefore, the glass-hearted second imperial concubine was humiliated and committed suicide.

However, what Zhao Xuedi said is not the same thing.

Zhao Xuedian said: "Actually, it is not so much that the second imperial concubine wants to commit suicide, but that someone wants the second imperial concubine to die." ”

Someone wants her dead?

The emperor has already punished her, how can anyone still want the second imperial concubine to die?

The royal affairs are too contradictory and complicated, and according to Yu Qiuyu's IQ, it is really incomprehensible.

"Since Your Majesty has made a decree to punish the second imperial concubine for kneeling at the door, then why does the queen mother have to take such a step and let Aunt Jing bring someone over to slap the second imperial concubine? And the second imperial concubine suffered such a great shame, how could she live, and how could she have the face to live? So, this is the purpose of that person, who wants the second imperial concubine to die. ”

Therefore, when Zhao Xuedi heard that the queen had arranged for Aunt Jing Yunqian to come over and punish the second imperial concubine, he could guess the queen's motives.

"However, the second princess is the cousin and niece of the queen mother, they are a family, why did the queen mother kill her cousin and niece, and kill her own family?"

"Family?"

Hearing this, Zhao Xuedian smiled again, but there was a lot of irony in his smile.

"Maybe the second princess does treat the queen as a family member, but whether the queen treats the second princess as a family member is not necessarily."

Perhaps, what the second princess attaches importance to is not worth mentioning in the eyes of the queen mother.

"Do you know that the queen is the biological mother of the third prince?"

Seeing that Yu Qiuyu still looked ignorant, Zhao Xue simply explained more to Yu Qiuyu.

"I ...... I don't know. ”

Yu Qiuyu had been living in Lingnan before this and rarely came to the capital, so he didn't know about these things in the capital at all.

"Let me tell you, the queen mother is the biological mother of the third prince Zhao Zhiyuan, you see, the Central Plains now has two princes with huge power, one is the second prince, the other is the fifth brother, this time the second prince fell short of dealing with the fifth brother, and was imprisoned by His Majesty, then, the third prince and the second prince are close, even a gang, the second prince is imprisoned, the second prince loses power, then the third prince will also be affected, even if the third prince is not angry, the queen has to plan for her son, and the second princess, It is the queen mother who seeks the first step for her son. ”

Zhao Xue explained a lot, but Yu Qiuyu still didn't understand too much.

She really doesn't know much about government affairs.

So......

Yu Qiuyu sighed silently in her heart.

According to his own IQ, he may really not be suitable for Gong Dou.

"You still haven't understood?"

Zhao Xuedie's mouth was dry, and when she looked back at Yu Qiuyu, she still looked like she didn't understand.

She asked again in frustration.

Yu Qiuyu nodded embarrassedly.

Well, I'm sorry.

She still hadn't figured it out.

“……”

Zhao Xuedi was silent for a moment.

Admitting defeat and giving up has never been her Zhao Xuedie's style of doing things.

"Let's put it this way, in fact, you see, His Majesty was angry and punished the second imperial concubine and made the second imperial concubine kneel on the long street, which was enough humiliation, right? But it's not too early or too late, the queen mother just wants to add a fire at this time, she doesn't hit her body, she just wants people to hit the face of the second princess, ordinary people know that beating people doesn't hit the face, let alone the second princess, right? But the queen mother not only slapped the second princess in the face, but also knocked the second princess unconscious, and told the second princess that she would come back tomorrow, isn't this just a clear way to tell the second princess that this punishment will continue? ”

Saying this, Yu Qiuyu vaguely understood.

Therefore, the second imperial concubine can't stand this humiliation and will inevitably commit suicide.

But what Yu Qiuyu didn't understand was: "The second prince and the third prince are in the same gang, why should the queen mother hurt the second princess?" ”

"The second princess and the second prince have a harmonious relationship between husband and wife, and the second prince also likes his wife, if the second princess dies, but the second prince can't help it, do you think he will hate the person who put himself in such a situation?"

It definitely will.

Therefore, Zhao Xuedi means that the second prince will definitely hate Zhao Zhichen because of the death of the second princess, and then he will definitely rack his brains to deal with Zhao Zhichen.

Two dogs strive for a bone and a third runs away with it.

Therefore, it will be the three princes who will benefit in the end.

What an earth-shattering conspiracy!

Yu Qiuyu, who was taken aback, hurriedly took a sip of tea to suppress the shock.

"I really didn't expect that the queen would treat the second princess like this for the sake of the third prince, and she did not hesitate to force the second princess to death."

Yu Qiuyu felt extremely shocked no matter how she thought about it, the queen mother was too terrible.

"Moreover, what is even more terrible is that the queen's punishment is under the banner of the emperor, even if the second prince wants to blame Aunt Jing Yunqian for killing his second imperial concubine, he can only blame the emperor, after all, it is the emperor's will to punish the second imperial concubine, without the emperor's will, the queen cannot touch the second imperial concubine."

In the whole incident, the queen couldn't find a little fault in her body, even if the second prince Zhao Zhixiang wanted to blame anyone, who he wanted to blame, he couldn't blame the queen.

"It's horrible. It's horrible. ”

Yu Qiuyu felt that her heart and liver trembled, and she couldn't retract her breath for a long time.

"Moreover, I'm still wondering, why does the second imperial concubine have trouble with you and the palace master who have just arrived?"

While Yu Qiuyu was shocked by the matter of the second imperial concubine, Zhao Xuedian was thinking about other issues.

As soon as Zhao Xuedian said this, Yu Qiuyu was also curious.

Oh, yes.

She didn't take the initiative to provoke the second princess, she suspected at first that it was the second princess who was angry with her soft persimmon because of the matter of the second prince, but now that she looks at it, it doesn't seem to be the same thing.

"Could it be that someone is deliberately provoking the second imperial concubine from the beginning and guiding the second imperial concubine to turn their hatred on you, so that the second imperial concubine will make mistakes, and once she makes a mistake, she will have an opportunity, so that it will be much easier to deal with the second imperial concubine."

Yes, that makes sense.

But Yu Qiuyu felt that her brain could no longer support herself to digest these facts.

"In short, I think that the death of the second princess is not as simple as you imagined, Sister Qiuyu, now the situation is turbulent, and there are county lords who come to make peace, so you better be careful."

As he spoke, Zhao Xuedian poured Yu Qiuyu another cup of tea.

The tea was warm, Zhao Xuedian poured herself a glass of water, she put down the teapot, raised the teacup, and pulled away a smile.

"Come on, come on, drink a cup of tea and suppress the shock."

Yu Qiuyu raised her eyes to look at her, and was speechless for a moment.

She's not scared yet, is she?

She's just a little hard to digest.

But in the end, Yu Qiuyu still poured Zhao Xue and drank the cup of tea with his head up.
