Chapter 387: Visiting Chu Ruoyang
"You all get out of the way for this concubine!" Xue Guifei shouted and beat the guards with her hands, but the guards did not fight back, still standing in place. When Xue Guifei was tired, she saw that she couldn't even walk this way, so she could only retreat.
"Where is King Qin now?" As she walked back, she asked the little eunuch next to her.
"King Qin...... No, Chu ...... Chu ...... "The little eunuch stuttered for a long time, and he didn't know what to call Chu Ruoyang.
If you say the words of King Qin, it is equivalent to disobeying the holy decree of Chu Zhuangyan, but if you call your name directly, you feel that your head will not be guaranteed.
"Now in the side hall, the emperor sent someone to put him under house arrest, and there are guards guarding the door, is Niangniang going to see it?" The little eunuch hesitated for a long time and simply gave up calling Chu Ruoyang.
"Of course you want to go, you lead the way!" Xue Guifei temporarily changed her route and decided to ask Chu Ruoyang what was going on.
The little eunuch took her to the room where Chu Ruoyang was held and retreated.
After thinking of what happened on the road just now, Xue Guifei was worried that Chu Zhuangyan would also order her not to let her go in, so she tentatively walked a few steps forward, and when she saw that these guards did not squint, as if they did not see her, she immediately pushed open the door of the house.
"Mother, why are you here?" In the room, when Chu Ruoyang saw Xue Guifei, he stood up from the ground suddenly.
Xue Guifei didn't speak for a while after seeing him, turned around and closed the door, before walking up to him, holding his face and looking at it carefully.
"I didn't expect that after only a short period of time, you have become like this, and you have lost a lot of weight recently." She burst into tears as she spoke.
"Mother, don't cry, there is no way to do this, I can't disobey my father's order, so I can only obey." Although Chu Ruoyang was dissatisfied in his heart, he still kept comforting Xue Guifei.
"Don't worry, Wei Niang will never let you be demoted to a commoner like this, I will definitely go to the emperor to intercede and ask him to release you, even if you can't be released, at least restore your position as King of Qin."
Xue Guifei looked at Chu Ruoyang and said categorically, she really couldn't accept that her son had changed from a prince to a commoner, if it continued like this, then their mother and son would be bullied constantly.
"But this matter has been decided by the father, and even if the mother concubine goes, there is no way to change it." Chu Ruoyang shook his head a little dejectedly.
"No, there will definitely be a way, as long as the emperor still has me in his heart, there will definitely be a way." Xue Guifei didn't listen to Chu Ruoyang's advice at all, and wanted to help him restore the throne.
"What mistake did you make this time? Actually let the emperor do this to you? After pressing her mind, Xue Guifei remembered her purpose.
After hearing Xue Guifei's question, Chu Ruoyang hesitated for a moment and roughly explained the matter of those letters.
Hearing that Chu Ruoyang's sin was actually like this, Xue Guifei was also embarrassed. She thought that if there was no big mistake, Chu Zhuangyan would still be able to open the net, but when it came to these, it would be difficult to recover her previous position.
"Didn't you say those letters were well placed? How did it get into the hands of the emperor? ”
"I don't know, but I've thought about it, if it weren't for my father personally sending someone to get it, then the only person who might be able to move these things would be King Yan."
"Nothing happened during the time he was not in the capital before, and as soon as he returned to the capital, I became like this, and I definitely had nothing to do with him." Chu Ruoyang said after thinking about it, his tone was full of hatred for Chu Ruoyang.
After hearing Chu Ruoyang's speculation, Xue Guifei also hated Chu Ruoyang quite a lot.
"This King Yan has been working against us everywhere, and he had already planned to let him go before, but I didn't expect him to do this again, it can't be forgiven."
"Mother, don't go to your father during this time, he is angry now, and there is no good fruit to eat if you go." Chu Ruoyang was worried that she would go to Chu Zhuangyan to intercede on impulse, and kept persuading.
"Okay, then the concubine will listen to you, I won't go to the emperor's side for the time being, and I'll see after a few days when I calm down." Xue Guifei agreed after thinking about it.
After Xue Guifei told Chu Ruoyang some more things, she left here. I hurried back to my bedroom and began to think about countermeasures.
Although Chu Ruoyang had already persuaded her before and didn't let her go to Chu Zhuangyan, she couldn't just sit still, since Chu Zhuangyan couldn't work there, then she had to start from King Yan's side, and let Chu Ruoyang's sins be taken revenge on Chu Ruoyan.
"You go and find out, where is King Yan cultivating now?" Xue Guifei pointed to a small eunuch outside and said. She heard that Chu Ruoyao fainted after returning to the capital, and the emperor asked him to temporarily recuperate in the palace, and it should be easy to find him.
"Yes, concubine Niangniang, the slave will go." The little eunuch didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly left Xue Guifei's bedroom.
Just when Xue Guifei was waiting for news, Princess Chu Jiaying of Jincheng came here.
"Mother, I heard that King Qin has been demoted to a commoner? Is this serious? Chu Jiaying just heard the news and immediately rushed to Xue Guifei, wanting to verify the truth of the news.
Xue Guifei didn't speak, just nodded, after learning that the news was actually true, Chu Jiaying also began to be a little scared.
"My father actually demoted King Qin to a commoner, so the things we did before won't be found out, right? We're not going to be implicated, are we? ”
Chu Jiaying was a little anxious, and kept walking back and forth in place.
"What do you mean by those things we did before? Have we done anything before? Xue Guifei looked at Chu Jiaying and asked flatly.
"We weren't ...... before" Chu Jiaying just wanted to blurt out what they had done before, but swallowed back the words after seeing Xue Guifei's eyes.
"Yes, I said the wrong thing, we didn't do anything between us, I just came here every day to chat with the concubine." Chu Jiaying nodded secretly.
Since Xue Guifei didn't want to remember the previous things, then she would just pretend to be stupid to the end, as long as the matter would not involve herself.
"If there's nothing wrong with the princess, go back! It's not been peaceful lately, so it's better not to cause any trouble. ”
Xue Guifei's words were both concerned, but more of them were threats, threatening Chu Jiaying not to talk nonsense about the previous things, and not to run around.
Although Chu Jiaying was very dissatisfied with Xue Guifei's attitude, for the sake of her own safety, she could only swallow her anger and retreat.
After Chu Jiaying left, Xue Guifei leaned on her couch tiredly, thinking about some things that had happened recently.
All his support was lost overnight, he had no status, no trust from the emperor, and now he was the only one left.
"Concubine Niangniang, the slave is back." The little eunuch who had just gone to inquire about the news hurried back.
"It's good to be back, but have you found out where King Yan is?"
"I found out, it's not a secret where King Yan is, when he fainted, half of the palace knew about it, and recently more people went to see King Yan."
The little eunuch's words made Xue Guifei, who originally wanted to go to Chu Ruo, retreat a little. If there are a lot of people coming and going in King Yan's place recently, then Chu Zhuangyan must also be monitoring these people, if he goes again, won't he get into trouble?
"Okay, this palace knows, you don't want to talk to anyone about this matter, understand?"
"Understood." The little eunuch nodded, ready to leave here, but was stopped by Xue Guifei again.
"Wait a minute, when you come back, you go to the emperor to send a message to the palace, saying that the palace has made a bowl of soup and wants to taste it for the emperor."
Xue Guifei This is also a temporary decision, if it is not because of Chu Ruoyang but for other reasons, maybe Chu Zhuangyan will meet her.
"Yes." The little eunuch took the order to leave, hurriedly ran to the vicinity of the imperial study, and told the guards at the door what Xue Guifei had said, and the guards at the door hesitated for a moment and told Chu Zhuangyan about the matter.
When Chu Zhuangyan heard the little eunuch's words, he already understood what Xue Guifei was thinking, and she just wanted to take the opportunity to send something to herself to intercede for Chu Ruoyang.
If I really met her, maybe I would be soft-hearted, so I might as well just leave her aside. After thinking about it for a long time, he wrote a short letter and handed it to the little eunuch.
The little eunuch took this short letter and ran back to Xue Guifei's dormitory out of breath, he had already run back and forth many times in this short time, and the whole person was very tired.
Xue Guifei grabbed the letter from his hand, and there were only unusually cold words in it, and she rejected her very resolutely, and asked her not to go to the imperial study to find him for a while.
"Good, good." Xue Guifei angrily slammed the table.
She can't control so much now, and this matter must let King Yan learn a lesson. Otherwise, not only Chu Ruoyang's side, but even the anger in his heart would have nowhere to vent.
After making the decision, Xue Guifei calmed down, if she went rashly, there would still be a certain danger, so it was better to change the way.
After waiting quietly for a few days, Xue Guifei finally ushered in the opportunity, she learned that now King Yan has been allowed to go out, but someone needs to be monitored, and he is not allowed to step out of the palace.
However, as long as Chu Ruoyan can leave that room, then there will naturally be a way to deal with him, and it seems that it is time to visit Concubine Liang.
This good concubine is also a concubine of Chu Zhuangyan, but she is not very favored on weekdays, and she is fortunate to be visited a few times occasionally, and most of the rest of the time she is alone in the empty room. In addition, Concubine Liang is cowardly and simple-minded, so she is not liked by Chu Zhuangyan at all.
