Chapter 130: Warmth

"Your Highness, I have already met the people of the Li family, and they are happy to help Your Highness."

Zhao Zi also told Chu Ci the good news at the inn.

"Is it reliable?"

Chu Ci was also a little worried, they had to be cautious with every step they took now, and it was not ruled out that the Li family had followed Chu Ge's instructions to find out their location and information, and killed them by surprise.

"Reliable, the Li family has connected with the former queen, and he is still the uncle of His Royal Highness, and the prince's means are not strong enough to move them."

Zhao Zi also gave Chu Ci a clear understanding of the situation, trying to convince him that the Li family was reliable.

"What are their conditions?"

Although the relationship is good, Chu Ci is still a little worried when he sees that his brothers who have grown up together since childhood have taken refuge in Chu Ge.

"I haven't said it yet, Your Highness, no matter what, we can only make one last stand."

Chu Ci nodded and agreed with Zhao Ziyi's words. The spies who scattered sent the news of the investigation one after another, and there was evidence of the crimes of those dignitaries and dignitaries.

Chu Ci sneered, thanks to the fact that when he was in the palace, he arranged eyeliner in various officials' mansions, so that they would turn their faces one day and not recognize that people had chips that could subdue them, but they didn't expect to use them today.

"Deal with this thing, it's not a problem for us to hide like this, it's time to meet those people."

Chu Ci handed over the information to Zhao Ziyi and wanted to start the next plan.

"Your Royal Highness, Li Hong said that he would select palace people in a few days, and he could take the opportunity to arrange our people, and when the time comes, he should cooperate with the outside and reveal the true face of the prince."

Chu Ci hesitated for a moment, it was naturally necessary to arrange people, but Chu Ci had not yet thought about the candidate, this task was arduous and dangerous, and if he was discovered by Chu Ge if he didn't pay attention to it, he would die without a place to be buried.

"I'll go."

Chu Ci's train of thought was suddenly interrupted by Lu Yuan's voice.

They had just heard what they had just talked about.

"No, it's too dangerous."

Chu Ci didn't think about it, so he rejected Lu Yuanyuan.

"Only I am the most suitable, I can do martial arts, and I can change my appearance, no one will recognize me."

Chu Ci still didn't allow it, after entering the palace, it was equivalent to being exposed under Chu Ge's nose, and if something happened at this time, he couldn't save it.

"Those who become big things, no matter how informal, I am not afraid, what are you afraid of?"

Chu Ci's repeated refusal gave way to Lu Yuan, a little annoyed.

Zhao Ziyi listened to Lu Yuanyuan's reasoning, the most important thing in the palace is women, no one will care about a little palace maid, plus Lu Yuanyuan will be able to protect himself with martial arts, it is really not good to be easy to mix.

Although it is dangerous, I really can't think of a more suitable person than her.

"Yes, Your Highness, we have only found evidence of those ministers now, and if we want to overthrow the crown prince, we also need to find evidence that he killed the king and usurped the throne."

Zhao Zi also knew that Chu Ci was worried about Lu Yuan's safety, but now was not the time for his mother-in-law.

Since the road is far away, Chu Ci is no longer reluctant.

"Since you insist on going, take this with you, and if you are accidentally discovered, it will be ignited immediately, and I will rush in with the whole team of military horses."

Chu Ci's resolute face had a hint of determination, but his eyes were full of warmth. If Lu Lu is far away and is discovered, he will save him even if he dies.

"Hmm." Escaping Chu Ci's gaze, Lu Yuanyuan's face turned slightly red.

The crown prince elected the palace maid.

Lu Yuanyuan covered up the red lotus on his forehead, darkened his skin, and then changed his facial features, changing his appearance into an ordinary folk girl.

It's too good-looking to attract suspicion, it's not good-looking and can't be chosen, and it took a long time to find a suitable face.

Although it is not outstanding, its temperament is also very conspicuous among a group of mediocre women.

Sure enough, the first eunuch who announced the decree took a long way away.

Although the selection was chosen by the prince, the palace maid's humble status did not require Chu Ge to come forward, Lu Yuanyuan was still thinking about how to avoid Chu Ge, and now he even saved the meeting.

successfully entered the Huanyi Division, and Lu Yao was arranged to be trained under a grandmother.

The old and yellow women in the palace were jealous and malicious towards these young girls who came in, so they were very harsh on them. The rest of the girls lowered their eyebrows and were obedient to their eyes, or they did everything they could to please them, and they barely survived at the hands of these vicious grandmothers.

But the road is far away, the idea of equality in her bones does not allow her dignity to be trampled on, and the first day hinders the eyes of the grandmother.

"That maid has very hard bones, and she looks like a bright woman, but I didn't expect to be a fool."

Those who have money give benefits, and those who don't have money serve tea and water as servants, but they don't occupy anything when it's far away, and Mama takes what the girl who just came in and gives her filial piety and complains viciously to the other.

"That kind of idiot, she can't serve her a more powerful master, it's better to get her to Ming Zhaoyi's ......"

The two grandmothers glanced at each other sinisterly, their eyes full of calculations.

Everyone in the palace knows that Ming Zhaoyi once brought the prince's mother and queen concubine to the cold palace, and now the prince has no time to clean her up if he keeps her life, and after the enthronement ceremony, it is estimated that Ming Zhaoyi will also live to the end, and the general maid is to bury the master, basically those who go there are sent to death.

understands the rules of the palace, to distribute the master, and some people who give money and benefits will naturally get a good master.

When Lu Yuan was assigned to Ming Zhaoyi, everyone was snickering at this poor ghost.

Lu Yuanyuan naturally heard of it, but if she openly resisted at this time, her identity would be killed if it was not revealed, so she could only take one step at a time.

The eunuch led her to a secluded palace, threw her down, and left.

It was devastated and overgrown with weeds, and the road was far away, and I really didn't see that this was Zhaoyi's residence.

Slowly pushing open the door, a woman dressed in plain clothes, sitting at the table reading a book and pouring tea, leisurely and elegant, without a trace of sadness on her face.

"Slave and maid, see Zhaoyi Niangniang."

Mingxi glanced up, and there was no master's posture, so he sat down after calling the road far away.

"What did you do? How did you get me here at such a young age? ”

Mingxi is very aware of his current situation in the palace. Everyone else avoided her like a plague god, and the person who gave her was either a dying grandmother or a seriously ill little girl, and the woman in front of her was young, and she must have offended those snobs.

"I offended Mama, so I was assigned here."

Lu Yuan didn't know the details of Mingxi, and he didn't know whether this person was friend or foe, so he had reservations about speaking.

"It's so hard for you."

Mingxi sighed, feeling a little guilty and sad when she thought that she would have to burden others when she was executed.

"You don't have to be restrained, we can be companions here, and we don't have to follow any master and servant rules."

Mingxi thought about it, and finally had someone to talk to, although he didn't know how many days he had left, it was good for the two of them to help.

"Xie Zhaoyi."

Lu Yuanyuan heard Mingxi's gentle tone, and there was a warmth in his heart.

In this secluded place, Lu Yuanyuan tried his best to inquire about the news of the palace, especially about the enthronement ceremony. She couldn't meet with Chu Ci, so she could only rely on the opportunity to deliver news to Mingxi.

Mingxi has a good impression of this smart and clever woman, their relationship is not as clear as that of other palaces, and the two get along more like friends.

Lu Yuanyuan knew that there would be Xiongnu in the enthronement ceremony in the discussion of the palace people, Tu'an watched the ceremony, and all the Praetorian Guards would guard the sacrificial platform, so he wrote a letter to Chu Ci and told him the process.

It didn't take long for Zhao Ziyi to send her a message in, saying that there was a Ming Zhaoyi in the palace, who was her own person, and if there was any inconvenience in the palace, she could ask for help.

Mingxi began to feel suspicious of Lu Yuanyuan One night, she found a woman going out of Lu Yuanyuan's room, this woman had a good face and was very beautiful.

The idea of not wanting to die here Ming Xi understood that there was something she felt that she could tell her directly, why was she so sneaky.

"Who's that woman in your room?"

Early the next morning, Mingxi asked straight to the point.

Lu Yuan was silent, and he didn't expect to be seen by Mingxi.

"I don't blame you, if you find a backer, run for your life, I won't stop you, don't do this in the future, you will die if you are found by the palace people who patrol the night."

Mingxi thought that Lu Yuanyuan's silence was a tacit acquiescence, and persuaded her to say a few things.

Seeing that Mingxi didn't blame her, but was dedicated to her own good, Lu Yuanyuan was moved.

"Why don't you want to get out?"

There are no outsiders here, she feels that Mingxi and Chu Ge are not together, they are just poor people, and she began to think about her in her heart.

"I can't go, since that's the case, I'm not dissatisfied with you, I'm not in the company of traitors I'm waiting for Mingjun."

Anyway, he is already a dying person, and Mingxi has nothing to avoid.

It seems that as Zhao Ziye said, Ming Zhaoyi is indeed his own person, and Lu Yuanyuan plans to confess his identity to her so that he can discuss how to catch Chu Ge's incriminating evidence.

"Niangniang, but wait for the eldest prince to return safely?"

Lu Yuanyuan directly led the topic to Chu Ci, but made Mingxi stunned.

"Do you know anything about the eldest prince?"

In this deep palace, it is a capital crime to say a wrong word, how can such a little maid know so much?

Lu Yuanyuan smiled, didn't say much, and directly wiped off the makeup on his face.

Seeing that the woman in front of her had completely changed, Ming Xi's eyes widened in surprise, and Ming Xi calmed down when he saw Lu Yuan's face carefully.

She had heard that the eldest prince found the fairy queen, his appearance was strangely beautiful, and he saw a red lotus on his forehead, with the assets of immortals, and the potential to save the world.

"You ......"

Mingxi didn't know what to call her for a while.

"Just call me far away."

Since the fairy queen appeared here, presumably the eldest prince was also nearby.

"Why did the eldest prince want you to enter the palace?"

Ming Xi has been in this palace for so long, so he naturally knows that this place eats people and does not spit out bones, and it will not be too risky to do this far away.

"The prince is suspicious, and he is spreading the word outside that the prince is collaborating with the enemy and treason, I came in to find out the news, and by the way find evidence of the prince's collaboration with the enemy."

After hearing this, the corners of Mingxi's mouth raised a sneer.

"Not only is it a collaborator, but I also suspect that the former emperor did not die of a serious illness, but the crown prince poisoned the king in order to claim the king as soon as possible."

Mingxi's words made Lu Yuanyuan startled, if he killed the king and killed his father like this, it was a big crime, and if it was exposed, he would be pointed out by a thousand people, and there would be no day to turn over.

"Is there any evidence?"

Lu Yuanyuan asked eagerly, this was an important bargaining chip for Chu Ci.

"Not yet, but when the emperor died, he wanted to point out the prince to me, and his eyes were full of hatred, so he must have something to say."

Mingxi still remembered that the crown prince was in front of him when the emperor died, and the emperor took her hand and wrote in the palm of her hand, and kept glancing at Chu Ge with his eyes, his eyes were full of anger and unwillingness.

It seems that we can't afford to be in a corner of the world.

Lu Yuanyuan thought in her heart that if she wanted to subdue Chu Ge, she had to have a bargaining chip to overwhelm him, and only this one chance, she couldn't have the luck mentality that the test of force could solve it.

"I can't move around, so I have to find a way to get out of here and get along with the prince."

There is no strong evidence here, so Lu Yuanyuan decided that we should leave here for the time being and lurk beside Chu Ge.

"It's too dangerous, the prince is suspicious, and he has seen you, he will be exposed."

Ming Xi knew Chu Ge's methods, and if he was discovered, not only was Lu far away, but Chu Ci would also be implicated, and their plans would be completely shattered at that time.

"It's okay, I'll be transfigured, just be cautious."

Lu Yuanyuan's firm eyes contain decisiveness and determination.

Outside the Imperial Palace, Shangshu Mansion.

Qin Hui, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, carefully checked his corruption records in the past two years in front of the oil lamp, and all of them were stolen money that had not been handed over to the state treasury. Afraid of causing more trouble, Qin Hui took the account book to the oil lamp and lit it, but before the paper was burned, he suddenly felt a cold neck.

"Don't move, be careful that the sword doesn't grow long."

Qin Hui was so frightened that he practiced and begged for mercy.

"Heroes spare their lives, you can take anything you want."

Zhao Ziyi sneered and glanced at the unburned ledger.

"Your Excellency is really wise, do you think that no one will know about it?"

Qin Hui had already been scared out of sweat, if this was sued to the imperial court, it would be a big crime for the nine clans.

"I beg the hero's subordinates to show mercy, if the hero is silent, I will definitely be a hero and worship the nobleman day and night."

It's really a shame to do too much.

Zhao Ziyi's voice sounded again in the dark night.

"Your Majesty is there."

Suddenly, the oil lamp in the study turned on again, and Chu Ci sat directly opposite Qin Hui, his eyebrows and eyes like a sculpture were cool, and his face flickered brightly under the dim oil lamp.

Qin Hui was completely panicked when he saw that it was Chu Ci, and he fell to his knees all of a sudden.

"Weichen didn't know that the eldest prince had arrived, and I hoped that the eldest prince would open up and spare Weichen this time."

Looking at Qin Hui, who was kneeling on the ground in panic, Chu Ci's voice was cold and dangerous.

"Don't panic, adults, I'm just here to do one thing."

"The eldest prince just orders, and Weichen must do his best."

"At the enthronement ceremony, I want you to identify the prince's private seal in front of hundreds of civil and military officials and disturb the court."

"This ......"

Qin Hui narrowed his eyes, and secretly weighed the pros and cons in his heart. He did help the crown prince forge the jade seal, but how did the eldest prince know?

Chu Ci seemed to know what he was thinking.

"You don't have to be surprised how I would know, the seal at all times is a big crime, plus you embezzle the treasury, the crime is added to the first, if you want to live, do as I say."

"Yes yes yes ......"

Although Qin Hui surrendered on the surface, he still had calculations in his heart, the crown prince and the eldest prince were incompatible, and neither side was completely sure of saving his life.

But now that the crown prince is the one who is about to become the emperor and the ruler of the Chu State, Qin Hui is becoming more and more respectful on the surface, but in his heart he is thinking about how to report to the prince.

After coming out of Shangshu Mansion, Zhao Zi also became more and more worried, it stands to reason that Chu Ge also has the skill to deal with the ministers, if this Qin Huiyang Fengyin violates Chu Ge, then they will be in danger.

"Your Highness, it seems inappropriate, Qin Hui is the prince's person, it's hard to guarantee that he won't find the prince."

Chu Ci smiled, and his cold face looked confident.

"I just want him to tell Chu Ge."

If he wasn't completely sure, he wouldn't have taken such a risky move.
