Chapter 140: Waiting for the Rabbit

Gong Yaoyuan's face finally became solemn.

"Don't you think it's strange about this fire? If you fail to stop it in time. ”

"Witnessing his mother's coffin burned under his nose and powerless prince, who will take his resentment out of anger!?"

Not!

This still needs to be asked, naturally it is Chu Zexi, the fourth prince who is responsible for transporting the coffin back to the palace this time, no, maybe he will also hold a grudge with himself.

This kind of treacherous plan to sow discord must have come from the hand of a lady or prince in the deep palace.

Gong Yaoyuan noticed the change in the expression on Xiao Nizi's face, and knew that she probably had figured out the powerful relationship in it.

"Who does Gong Gongzi think it will be?"

Xia Qingyi's eyes flashed slightly, staring at the humanity in front of her without blinking.

"If Qing'er really wants to know, it's not impossible, as long as you call Ben Gongzi 'husband'."

"This son has his own way to find out the person behind it. Qing'er, do you want to 。。。。。。 ”

"Husband, don't sell it, just say it quickly."

Without waiting for the man to finish speaking, Xia Qingyi blurted out extremely happily, so directly it made the man at a loss, where did he expect that he dreamed of a nickname, in himself

Under the casual mention of a 'lure', it was easily realized. looked at the little girl in front of her stupidly, forgetting her reaction.

"Qing, Qing'er。。。。。。。 How did you do so easily!? Don't even think about it!? ”

"What are you thinking about?" Xia Qingyi gave the second fool on the other side a big roll of the eyes, and replied casually while brushing the dirt on his clothes.

"Call your husband and don't lose a piece of meat, and the palace has no loss, don't talk about your husband, you can call your father."

"What's more, there is no one in these four places, who can prove what happened between you and me!?"

After a "poof" Yan Yingge couldn't hold back her laughter, she suddenly felt embarrassed again, and hurriedly turned her eyes to the outside of the carriage.

And Ouyang Qingying looked at the scenery outside the window intently from the beginning to the end of the carriage, if it weren't for the imperceptible smile on the corner of his mouth, who would have seen that this little guy had been stealing

Listen!?

Indeed, all the people in this carriage are hers, and as long as she doesn't want to, no one will mention today's events again. What's more, if he wants to talk about it one day, no one will pay attention to him at all.

Gong Yaoyuan looked at the two little dolls in front of him, a man and a woman, with some annoyance, and felt a little frustrated once in his life. thinks that he is the son of the richest man in the world, but he can't even buy two little hairy children.

Alas, sad and lamentable!

"Who's doing the tricks? This palace has done as you say, are you going to be a big man? ”

Gong Yaoyuan looked at Xiao Nizi with a smug smile on her face, and reluctantly whispered a few words in her ear.

"In this way, we will be able to lure out the scheming man behind it!"

The man is considered to have accepted his fate, who makes himself happy with this little girl, even if she eats to death, he is willing to eat. It's just that on the face, he won't admit it.

"Good strategy!" Xia Qingyi didn't hesitate to praise, exhaled softly, and then beckoned Wan Yan Yingge and Ouyang Qingying to lean over and give a few words respectively. The two little clever ghosts heard this

First, one left and one right floated away from the carriage one after another, leaving Gong Yaoyuan, who had a wicked smile, staring at the little girl in front of him for a long time.

"Hehe, Qingqing, now there are only two of you and me left, this son 。。。。。。"

Before she finished speaking, the woman flashed out of the carriage, and looked back and grimaced.

"Gong Gongzi has a bad memory, and he forgot that this palace is also burdened with 'heavy responsibilities', so Gongzi will rest alone!"

Hahahahaha!

Only the woman's hearty and uninhibited laughter and a depressed Gong Yaoyuan were left in the air.

。。。。。。

In the early morning of the next day, the originally powerful funeral procession and dozens of monks quietly entered the palace from the north gate, and directly sent the coffin to the 'Fengyi Palace'.

Then the strange thing is that there was no mourning hall to pay tribute, and Emperor Nanchu did not arrange the queen's posthumous affairs, and he did not even issue an order for the three palaces and six courtyards to come to worship and guard the spirit. On the contrary, the inner three floors and the outer three floors surrounded the queen's bedroom, and there were people patrolling in turn for twelve hours.

Such a contrary move made rumors spread in the former dynasty and harem for a while, but no one dared to take the initiative to ask about it in front of Emperor Southern Chu until two days later。。。。。。

On the Golden Luang Palace

"Father, the sons heard that the coffin of the queen mother had been transported back to the palace, why didn't they tell the world for a long time?

"Nor do you open a mourning hall for the queen mother? This move is true, so that the queen mother's soul in the sky can not be comforted!? ”

At the early dynasty ceremony, the second prince, who rarely attended, bowed uncharacteristically and knelt on the top of the main hall, and his sincere filial piety appearance and a generous tone made the old ministers nod and praise again and again.

And His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the queen's sister-in-law, quietly glanced at the second prince, who had never paid attention to government affairs, and said nothing.

Emperor Nanchu sat calmly on the dragon chair, and his eyelids didn't bother to raise his eyelids to look at the people kneeling in the middle of the hall.

"Second brother, you are a person who lingers in the teahouse every day and devotes himself to poetry creation, how can you be so concerned about your mother's affairs today?"

As soon as the old emperor's voice fell, the second prince couldn't help but panic in his heart, his father didn't manage the matter of his request at all, but he was clear about his habits on weekdays, which was obviously suspicious of him.

was so busy that he kowtowed and pleaded guilty, and the voice between his lips and teeth couldn't help but tremble.

"Qi, Qi, Qi's father, although the sons and ministers are absurd on weekdays, they ignore government affairs. But my Southern Chu has ruled the world with 'filial piety' for generations. ”

"If the son is filial, the family will be united, and the world will return to the heart and be stable for a long time. Therefore, although Erchen does not secretly do government affairs on weekdays, he also keeps this shallow truth in mind. ”

"The queen mother has suffered from a serious illness in front of her, and she has suffered a lot, and her sons are unable to serve the sick, and they feel guilty for sharing it."

"Now that the queen mother has returned to the court, if the sons and daughters are still unable to worship and guard their spirits, how can they be the sons of men in vain."

"Therefore, the son begs his father to open a mourning hall for his mother as soon as possible to pay tribute to and appease the souls of the dead."

The second prince's words were heartfelt and earnest, and everyone in the hall was moved. Only Emperor Nanchu was silent, and only after half a sound did he speak leisurely.

"What does the prince say, your royal brother seems to be more filial to your mother than you."

As soon as Emperor Nanchu said this, the second prince immediately felt a chill down his spine, and the emperor's words were openly and secretly mocking him for pretending, and he was more concerned about his mother's afterlife than his sister-in-law.

The most important thing is that the emperor doesn't believe what he says at all.

The prince's eyes flashed slightly, and there was no trace of emotion in his tone.

"Father and Emperor Rong, when the sons and daughters went out of the city to greet them that day, the four emperor brothers had already warned the sons and daughters that the queen mother died of the epidemic."

"I am afraid that the corpse will infect innocent people, so it cannot be opened, and after returning to Beijing, Erchen also asked the imperial doctor to test it and confirm that it is an epidemic."

"In the past few days, the sons and daughters have strictly guarded and not allowed the concubines to come to pay their respects so as not to spread the epidemic."

"I was afraid that the people of Bianjing City would cause panic, so I didn't tell the world, and what Erchen wanted was to deal with the funeral team as soon as possible."

"Therefore, they were uniformly placed in the 'Fengyi Palace' by their sons to observe that there were any changes, and they originally wanted to wait for two more days."

"When the crisis is resolved, I will invite my father and the emperor together, how do you know that the second emperor brother is so anxious, is it not the spy who has trespassed on the 'Fengyi Palace' for several days."

"They were all sent by the second emperor brother? Those two emperor brothers are really troubled! ”

The last sentence of the crown prince was almost a mockery of the second prince's intentions, and immediately provoked the other party!

"You! You! You! What nonsense! ”

And the few people who listened to it with relish behind the throne screen of the 'Jinluan Palace' were the initiators, but they couldn't help but turn their heads and ears at this moment.

"This prince is really unbearable, my sister has confessed, let him not be angry for a while, he will be like that in the end. Isn't it a surprise to the snake? ”

Ouyang Qingying pursed his lips and said with some annoyance.

"Forget it, the prince is so proud to win people, he has never been wronged since he was a child, where is he willing to be plotted by others, and he can't fight back after suffering a dumb loss?"

Chu Zexi rarely opened his mouth and actually defended his half-brother, which made Xia Qingyi look sideways for a while.

It turned out that on that day, Gong Yaoyuan's idea to Xia Qingyi in the carriage was to sweep away all the spies along the way, and Xia Qingyi would use the 'moon chopping silk' to surround the coffin tightly and transport it directly to the palace, during which everything was kept secret.

Then send someone to the palace to say hello to the emperor Lao Tzu, so that the mastermind behind the sneak attack will not receive the news, and he will not be able to find out the movement on their side.

On the other hand, he cooperated with the prince to put on a good show, so that the other party mistakenly thought that he had succeeded, but His Royal Highness the prince wanted to hide this matter, so that as long as anyone couldn't hold his breath and poked this matter out, it must be the mastermind behind the scenes.

Sure enough, within a few days, the big fish took the bait on its own。。。。。。

The crown prince stared at the second prince in front of him gloomily, unable to take his eyes off it, his cold and piercing gaze seemed to swallow the other party alive, such a hostile provocation, where did the second prince not understand.

Looking at the appearance of Emperor Nanchu and the crown prince, they have been waiting for themselves for a long time, from beginning to end, this is a conspiracy, a trap, and what they are waiting for is that he throws himself into the net.

After all, I was anxious and hasty, and I should wait a few more days to investigate the situation before making a decision.

But now, it's too late。。。。。。。

I was very annoyed in my heart, but I still maintained my composure on my face.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has misunderstood his brother, being a brother is just a matter of concern, where will he send any spies, this is really wronging your royal brother!"

The second prince who came back to his senses immediately switched back to the elegant and polite appearance before, with a distance between advance and retreat.

"Oh, isn't it really the second emperor brother? If the second emperor brother really didn't do it, it was the fault of the younger brother. ”

"You shouldn't speculate about the second imperial brother at will, please forgive the imperial brother!"

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said sorry in his mouth, but there was a half-apology in his expression, and in the eyes of others, the negotiations of the royal brothers were full of sparks, so lively.

"Alright, stop making trouble! If you have nothing to do, you will retire from the court, and wait for the prince to solve the queen's epidemic and then report it to the court together. ”

Emperor Nanchu painted the dispute in the hall in one sentence, and only a whisper was heard in the retreat of the ministers one after another。。。。。。。

"Since the second emperor brother is so worried about the queen mother, why don't you go down to the prince's mansion?"
