137 The heavens have changed

Princess Antai and Mu Peilan's people quickly found Bai Poria, and the sedan chair she was sitting in stopped on the way to come, and Banxia and Danzhu stood beside the car with a panicked face.

Mu Peilan took three steps and two steps and rushed forward to see with her own eyes that Bai Poria was safe and sound, so she let out a long sigh of relief and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?" ”

Bai Poria winked at her, pretending to be frightened and said in a voice that everyone heard: "The father-in-law who pulled the car just now suddenly turned to the fork in the road, saying that he wanted to take a shortcut to Huilan Palace, but he fainted somehow after walking a few steps, and there was no half a figure there, so Danzhu and Banxia had to work together to pull the sedan back here, so as to find someone to help." ”

Mu Peilan knew that things were by no means so simple, but there were many eyes and ears here, so it was inconvenient to ask in detail, Princess Antai stepped forward and said with a smile: "That's a false alarm, it's better for your mother and daughter to go back to Yihui Palace with the palace to rest for a while, and then go to Huilan Palace together at the dinner." ”

Bai Poria shook her head and said: "The queen's birthday is a big birthday, the princess is one of the masters in this palace, how can you snub the other ladies and ladies just for me, I have nothing to do, let's continue to Huilan Palace." I had a little accident, if I alarmed others and swept away the queen's Yaxing, it would really be a crime to die. ”

It is normal for her to hear this in the ears of others, but in the ears of Princess Antai and Mu Peilan, two elders who are familiar with her temperament, it has another deep meaning - with the habit of white poria, this is not what she will say at all.

If it was earlier, Princess Antai offered to take them back to Yihui Palace or even not to attend the queen's birthday banquet, she would definitely be the first to raise her limbs in favor.

Bai Poria has always been very assertive, she suddenly spoke like this, there must be her sake, Princess Antai and Mu Peilan did not talk much, called a close eunuch of Yihui Palace to pull the sedan chair for Bai Poria Cocos, and recalled other people who went to find Bai Poria to tell him not to be quiet, and the group hurried to Huilan Palace.

The three of them, Princess Antai has a high status, Mu Peilan and Bai Poria are the two mothers and daughters who are beautiful and beautiful, and Bai Poria is the most recent topic of conversation, and as soon as they arrived at Huilan Palace, they immediately caused a small sensation.

Bai Poria was brought by Mu Peilan to meet several familiar ladies, and then followed Princess Antai to the prepared room to rest, during which several ladies came to visit the princess, and she was very patient with her.

Lunch was also served in the Huilan Palace, and from beginning to end, Mu Peilan couldn't say anything to Bai Poria alone.

In the Huilan Palace, the clothes are fragrant and the sideburns are shadowy, and the singing and dancing are leveling, but the three daughters have vaguely felt that the mountain rain is coming.

Soon after lunch, Bai Poria was served by Banxia and Danzhu to take a nap on the soft couch in the warm pavilion on the side of the hall, she actually didn't feel sleepy at all, but she just wanted to think things through quietly alone.

I knew from my knees that the eunuch who "fainted" halfway just now probably wanted to take her somewhere, and then the second prince would appear on the stage as a flower thief. In fact, just a moment before Xiao You appeared, she originally planned to release the little raccoon flower to raid the eunuch who pulled the cart, but in this way, she would be in great trouble, so at this point, she was still a little grateful for Xiao You's timely arrival.

Banxia and Danzhu's expressions were a little wrong, as if they were controlled by Xiao You in some way, their expressions were strange and sluggish, and they seemed to have no impression of Xiao You's appearance.

These are not the things she cares about the most, the reason why she insisted on coming to Huilan Palace, and patiently entertaining those ladies, was only because of Xiao You's words before leaving-Don't worry, the second prince will not have a chance to fight your idea again!

From your consistent behavior, it is not difficult to guess that he intends to kill the second prince today, and she does not want to have anything to do with it, so she must remain normal, and must find witnesses who prove that she has nothing to do with the assassination, and there is nothing more convincing than that she was in public at the time of the crime.

The news of the death of the second prince will soon be announced...... Bai Poria was a little nervous and a little scared, she was not afraid of the dead, she was just vaguely afraid of Xiao You, who was he?!

The warm pavilion was as warm as spring, Bai Poria shrunk in the warm quilt, her consciousness slowly became hazy, and when she was half asleep and half awake, she suddenly heard a human voice outside, which was mixed with a woman's exclamation.

The carved wooden door of the warm pavilion was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and a pale-faced eunuch rushed in with a few young eunuchs, and rushed to her couch quickly.

Danzhu and Banxia caught up and said boldly: "I've seen Grandpa Yi, the young lady is taking a nap, can you invite Grandpa Yi to serve tea outside and talk?" ”

This Yi Gongcheng is the chief eunuch in the Empress Ningyi Palace, he has a tense face, and said gloomily: "Get out!" The Sprinkle family was ordered by the queen mother to arrest the traitor who assassinated the second prince. ”

Bai Poria trembled in her heart, it's coming! Sure enough, it came! I wonder if you have succeeded? Has anyone been found to have left a handle?

With such a big movement, it was impossible for her to continue to pretend to be asleep, so she simply rubbed her eyes and half-sat up, and asked vaguely, "Who is so noisy?" ”

Father-in-law Yi saw her lazy and delicate appearance like a begonia spring sleep at a glance, her long black hair was fluffy and loose, and the bed clothes on her body were slightly wrinkled, and she had obviously slept for a while, and she couldn't help but beat a little drum in her heart, and the things she originally believed were shaken.

His mind was racing, and he took two steps back with momentum, and said: "The Sprinkle family is offended, there is a big incident in the palace, the Sprinkle family was ordered to come to investigate, please bear with me if I am offended!" ”

Bai Poria blinked her eyes, put on an innocent and ignorant Lori look, and said curiously: "Hmm...... What are you looking for? ”

Gonggong Yi was stunned for a moment, and asked unnaturally: "When did the young lady arrive in this Huilan Palace, and did she leave halfway?" ”

"I came with the princess and my mother-in-law, and I talked to the aunts all the time, huh...... Banxia, when did we arrive? ”

Banxia bowed his head and said: "In the middle of the time, the slave maid saw that the sundial in front of the Huilan Palace showed this hour. ”

In fact, Grandpa Yi had asked other people before he came. He knew the plan of the second prince, but he didn't know what went wrong in the middle. The second prince was assassinated, and the first thing the queen thought of him was related to Bai Poria cocos, because according to time calculation, Bai Poria should have been with him at that time, but he didn't expect Bai Poria to sleep peacefully in Huilan Palace like no one now, but the second prince was stabbed to death in a small palace with no people.

They all felt that there must be something strange in this, and most of the death of the second prince was related to Bai Poria cocos, but they couldn't say what was bitter.

Things were well planned, and the queen sent someone to the pre-agreed place on time to "happen to bump into" the second prince and Bai Poria for a private meeting, so as to force Bai Poria to marry the second prince, but she didn't expect to pounce, and neither Bai Poria nor the second prince were seen.

The people sent hurriedly returned to the queen, and the queen was silent, and sent people to search for their traces in a hurry, only to find that the eunuch who specially arranged to pull the cart for Bai Poria was fainted halfway, and Bai Poria had already arrived at Huilan Palace.

The queen's anxiety was even worse, and she ordered people to search the nearby palaces closely, and finally found the second prince and his entourage in a temporarily vacant palace, a total of nine, all dead.

When the queen heard the news, she fainted on the spot, and it took a lot of effort for the imperial doctors to wake her up, and it took a long time for the queen to regain her senses, and the first thing she did was to send someone to Huilan Palace to catch Bai Poria Cocos, she didn't have any evidence, but she wholeheartedly determined that her son's death must be related to her!

Before Gonggong Yi could ask again, he suddenly heard the voice of the eunuch behind him: "Princess Antai has arrived!" ”

Princess Antai stepped inside, walked to the white poria couch and pointed at Gonggong Yi and shouted: "Bold slave, who allows you to rush around and offend the guests of the palace?!" Where are the rules? Get out! ”

The second prince died, and the queen's status was also in jeopardy, and Gonggong Yi knew that if the queen lost power, he would not have good fruit to eat. And the queen has no evidence at all to prove that Bai Poria has anything to do with the stabbing of the second prince, the white Poria in front of her is just a girl who has just reached the end of her life, with a naïve and ignorant face, if it is really related to such a big event, how can she be calm? Even if the city is deep, it is impossible for a person to be involved in the assassination of the prince.

It was precisely because of this idea that Gonggong Yi softened his attitude just now, and when he was drunk by Princess Antai again, he didn't dare to make a mistake, and said in a low voice: "The slave doesn't dare...... Just the queen ......"

Princess Antai glanced at him impatiently and said: "If the queen has an opinion, she can reason with the palace, the second prince has an accident, and the palace is also deeply disturbed, you slaves should persuade the queen to mourn and assist the palace guards to find out about this matter." Climbing and biting like this, intimidating and colliding with the relatives of officials, and spreading it outside, where is the dignity of the heavenly family? How can the officials of the court do things for the emperor with peace of mind?! ”

After saying that, Gonggong Yi couldn't help but bow his head and make amends, and he didn't dare to take a breath, but he was also secretly relieved in his heart, with Princess Antai stopping and scolding, he couldn't do his errands and wouldn't be able to explain to the queen.

Now is different from the past, the second prince is gone, and he can't afford to take his life for a queen who has no hope. Gonggong Yi returned to Ningyi Palace with a few little eunuchs who came with him, and he had already begun to secretly calculate his future along the way.

The assassination of the second prince in the palace soon spread, the palace exploded, the large and small gates were all blocked, the imperial forest army of the eastern camp was called into Beijing to guard the palace tightly, no one or so without the emperor's handwritten edict, no one is allowed to enter or leave.

The mansions of several princes were also besieged by the Imperial Forest Army, whether it was surveillance or protection, anyway, several princes in Beijing were temporarily placed under house arrest in the prince's mansion, and they were also forbidden to enter and exit.

The families of many officials in Beijing were detained in the palace, and the people in the capital were panicked, even the ordinary people on the street knew that the sky was about to change! .
