Chapter 154: Slander
"Auspicious? How could he be declared into the Taihe Palace? Xiao Nian looked at Jixiang in surprise and asked.
The same eunuch, he can only stay outside, why was Jixiang summoned in?
Chu Yi dusted off his sleeves, also stepped in, and replied lightly: "Of course, it is to prove that my brother has a disagreement with this palace." β
On the day of the heavy rain, the people who knew that Chu Ye was arguing with her, except for the palace people of Weiyang Palace and Xiao Yan, only the eunuch Jixiang beside Chu Ye was auspicious.
So, naturally, he came today...... testifying.
She originally heard that a group of ministers impeached the prince, and thought that there was something wrong with her Weiyang Palace, but she didn't expect that this detail came from the prince's side.
Chu Yi just didn't expect that the Fan family's hand had been stretched out so long, Jixiang was a little eunuch who had been with his brother for more than ten years, and he seemed to have been loyal, maybe his brother also had a lot of things to deal with him, and at this time, he suddenly turned against him, and everyone would be caught off guard.
However, thinking that as soon as she returned to the palace, Concubine Xian placed Yi Qiu by her side, did nothing, and hid silently by her side for more than ten years, until she died, Yi Qiu revealed her identity;
Luomei, who has been by Gu Sangsang's side since the palace, has achieved the position of the palace maid, and she is actually a member of the Fan family.
Compared to them, auspiciousness is nothing.
ββThe Fan family is in the same vein in terms of installing people.
"Princess Yongning is here!"
Chu Yi walked into the Taihe Palace, looked around at everyone, and calmly walked to Gu Chengqi, who was waving at him, and stood beside him.
Gu Chengqi looked Chu Yi up and down, his eyes were full of concern, and asked, "Yi'er, when I heard that you were assassinated yesterday, I scared everyone stupid...... Are you okay? β
Chu Yi: "Jumping around." β
"That's good! I sent a lot of ginseng and deer antler velvet to Weiyang Palace, you remember to eat it, make up for it. β
"Why didn't the princess salute when she saw His Majesty?"
Feng Jia interrupted the two who were catching up and jumped out and shouted.
Chu Yi raised his head, didn't even look at him, looked at Chu Tingxiao, and only called softly: "Father, ......"
The clear voice was slowed down and a little softer.
"Presumptuous! Feng Jia, are you old and have a problem with your brain, Liuliu was just assassinated yesterday, and now she is weak and can't take care of herself, you actually still talk about her, and I have already said that Liuliu doesn't need to salute when he sees me, if you don't have a good memory, just shut me up! β
Chu Tingxiao said angrily, his eyes kept glued to Chu Yi and did not take his eyes off.
"Go down the decree, Feng Jia will despise the holy decree and be fined for half a year, and tomorrow I will start thinking about the past behind closed doors, you traitor, rebel!"
"Minister......
Before Feng Jia could say the second sentence, Chu Tingxiao had already cracked into a roar of rage, smashing him to his knees and begging for mercy again and again.
"Your Majesty's anger, Your Majesty's angerβ"
He said a word, and the emperor almost didn't behead him.
Feng Jia decided that from now on, he would never get involved in anything that had anything to do with Princess Yongning.
"Fortunately, Liuliu is fine, if something happens to her, I will be the first to take off your head!"
Feng Jia was about to cry aggrievedly: "The minister didn't do anything......"
Chu Tingxiao glared again.
"Ah, Your Majesty, wrath."
Chu Tingxiao asked Zhang Desheng to bring out a soft chair for Chu Yi, and then looked at Ji Xiang who was trembling in the middle of the main hall: "You go on, what did you see the day before yesterday?" β
Father-in-law Zhang deliberately put on the softest cushion for the princess, and when he saw the princess sitting down peacefully, he couldn't help but smile kindly.
Chu Yi narrowed his eyes and glanced at Chu Ye and Chu Zhao who were standing in the position of the prince.
Of the five princes of the Yan Kingdom, there were only two of them in the last dynasty, but they were usually busy with affairs, but today it is rare for them to appear at the same time and stand together.
Chu Ye lowered his head except for a faint smile to himself when he first came in, he was wearing a pale cyan python robe, and his face was a little pale when he was always gentle and calm, especially after seeing auspiciousness.
Chu Zhao was dressed in black and looked at everything coldly.
His eyes were deep and cold, and he couldn't see any emotion, but after seeing Chu Yi, his dark eyes lit up for a moment, and then quickly fell silent.
"Slave, slave accompanied His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to Weiyang Palace to find the princess that day, His Royal Highness the Prince, he, he said that the queen was partial to the princess and the five princes, the princess refuted the matter, and the two quarreled......"
What Ji Xiang said seems to be what happened that day.
Chu Yi had already guessed his words, and the corners of his lips hooked up with a cold arc.
Sure enough, it was related to the quarrel between my brother and myself that day.
Ji Xiang said, and finally raised his head and glanced at Chu Ye in fear.
Fan Qian couldn't help but say: "What are you afraid of, just tell the facts of that day, in front of everyone's eyes, can His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still kill you?" β
This sentence made Ji Xiang tremble and be even more afraid.
Ji Xiang lowered his head and continued: "After the rainstorm fell, the princess also asked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to wait in the rain for an hour, and then ...... Later, when His Royal Highness left, he was very angry, and said that he wanted to make the princess look good! β
"What Bengong said is to apologize to Xiaoliu!"
Chu Ye stood up and roared, his lacquered eyes were sharp, he was furious, and he couldn't maintain his previous calm and self-control: "Jixiang, this palace treats you well, and you haven't even treated you as a slave, you actually slander this palace?" β
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in a hurry, it's not too late to tell after listening to this little eunuch." Fan Qian said again.
Chu Ye gritted his teeth and clenched his fists: "Okay, this palace wants to see how else you can slander." β
Ji Xiang didn't dare to look at Chu Ye's eyes, and lowered his head: "Also, also, His Royal Highness gave the princess many gifts afterwards, the most important of which was a batch of saddles that he spent a lot of money to build by himself, and he donated the saddles to the Yulin Army in charge of the princess, just to tempt the princess out of the palace and inspect the Yulin Army garrison on the outskirts of Beijing. β
Liu An said in surprise: "Yes, who can assassinate in the palace?" Naturally, whoever lured the princess out of the palace was the real mastermind. β
Chu Yi's eyes froze, and he stared at Liu An quietly.
Fan Qian was also shocked: "No wonder when the princess was assassinated, Yulin Jun came the latest, and he was collecting gifts from His Royal Highness the Prince, forgetting the princess's safety!" β
Another minister said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is so ruthless, just because of a dispute of words, he is going to kill His Royal Highness the Princess, Prince, that is your own sister, how can you bear it, what else do you have to say?" β
Chu Ye's eyes widened, it was about Chu Yi's safety, this was the only thing he couldn't calm down, he was just about to defend himself, but he was scolded back by the minister again, and he couldn't say a word.
"Where is my sister, the prince's biological mother died early, he usually only goes to the queen once a month to say goodbye, maybe, he has already held a grudge against the mother and the princess."
"Your Majesty, the prince's behavior is simply heinous, and the old minister asks His Majesty to put him in the prison and wait for his fate!"
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is benevolent, righteous and virtuous on the surface, and he usually looks like he has a deep affection for Princess Yongning's brother and sister, but I didn't expect it to be this kind of person......"
"Princess, now you can see clearly, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince actually wants to kill you!"
All of a sudden, there was chaos in the court, and there was no sound.
Some people are impeaching Chu Ye, some people can't believe that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is such a person, and some have already shown strange eyes to Chu Ye.
Maybe it's because the usual image of the prince is too perfect, so once they find the slightest mistake in him, when they are not sure whether it is right or wrong, they have already begun an irrepressible carnival.
"You said that my brother was behind the assassination of this palace, have you asked for the opinion of this palace?"
Chu felt that the green tendons in the corners of Chu Ye's forehead had tightened, and he suddenly spoke sharply.
The cold voice made Chu Zhao's eyes deeper and deeper.
The court was silent, and Fan Qian said indignantly: "Your Highness, if it is as auspicious as this auspicious said, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to kill you, don't be deceived-"
"Shut up, if this palace asks you something, you can speak, how can you speak here!" Chu Yi scolded coldly.
Fan Qian's face froze.
The corners of Chu Yi's mouth carried a hint of mockery, and he said expressionlessly:
"The several corpses left by the assassins have been identified by them, and Xiao Yan, who is traveling with the palace, can also testify, these assassins are all barbarians, since the ministers said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the person behind them, then, who, what evidence can prove that the elder brother and the barbarian colluded to take out the evidence."
"Also, the reason why the Yulin Army came last was because the place of assassination was the riverside behind the dense forest on the outskirts of Beijing, several miles away from the Yulin Army's station, the dense forest and the river already had the effect of silencing, the assassin did not ride a horse, nor did he scream, naturally the sound was not loud, how could the Yulin Army know?"
Her eyes were fierce, and whoever swept over her lowered her head.
Chu Ye resisted the urge to praise his sister, thinking that the cause of this incident was himself after all, he finally calmed down and thought slowly.
Chu Yi's gaze moved from Fan Qian's face to Liu An, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites.
Liu An avoided her eyes in fear, not daring to look at her.
"This palace wants to ask why the yamen and defenders in the capital, which are closer to the place of assassination, have not appeared for a long time. Even Father-in-law Zhang in the palace came, what about them, people? What do you think? She asked word by word.
A drop of sweat slipped across Liu An's forehead, and he whispered: "Princess, the minister is a waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and the minister, the minister doesn't know ......."
"If the palace is not mistaken, after Ling Lang Liu Cheng left the Yulin Army last month, he is now serving as a captain of the military academy defending the city, doesn't Liu Shilang know why Ling Lang didn't come to protect the palace yesterday?"
At the beginning, Liu Cheng served as the left lieutenant of the Yulin Army who was side by side with Cen Xiao, but a few days ago, because he couldn't bear the hard training of Captain Rong, he had left the Yulin Army and became a member of the defending army.
Liu An explained in a panic, and Yu Guang looked at Fan Qian: "Minister, the minister doesn't know about Ah Cheng, maybe he wasn't on duty yesterday." β
Chu Yi said meaningfully: "The city defenders are not like the wolf park, and the guards on duty are also changed in shifts. β
Her words directly made Cen Zijing, who was watching next to her, think of her son's betrayal of the wolf garden, and suddenly jumped out: "Yes, come and explain, why didn't the defenders of the city go to escort yesterday?" Why did Ling Lang disappear every time he reached a critical moment? Not only that, but you are actually embarrassed to slander the Yulin Army for dereliction of duty, isn't it the city defenders who are really derelict in their duties? β
Liu An shook his head sweatingly: "I don't know, isn't it...... Princess, this is just speculation, there is no evidence, and the dog has not offended you, why do you speculate about him so much. β
Chu Yi smiled.
In an instant, the princess's clear and fair face bloomed with a cold smile, like a red plum blooming alone in the long silent night.
"yes, you know there's no evidence."
Chu Tingxiao snorted coldly: "You all rely on the words of this little eunuch one by one, don't you maliciously speculate without evidence, do you want to punish the prince!" β
Ji Xiang suddenly said: "Minion, slave has evidence!" β
Chu Yi frowned, Chu Ye looked at him sharply, his handsome eyebrows were slightly twisted, and there was an aura of not being angry and arrogant: "Let's hear it, this palace really wants to know what evidence can prove that this palace will poison Xiao Liu." β
Ji Xiang Yu Guang saw Fan Qian, who was glaring at him angrily, his heart was crossed, and he said quickly: "Your Highness, you sent a message to Beifu last month, although the slave doesn't know who you wrote to, but you are the prince, why do you want to send a message to the army, aren't you colluding with the barbarians?"
And yesterday, you sent a message to the princess to drink ice and asked her to go to the Three Princes' Mansion...... You're just trying to get her away from her, so you can do something to the princess. β
Chu Zhao's face remained indifferent, until he heard this, his eyebrows moved slightly.
He frowned and said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knows that Yin Bing is the most important guard by Chu Yi's side, why did he let her go to the Third Prince's Mansion?" Didn't the prince think that if the ice was not there, something would happen to Chu Yi. β
Chu Ye was stunned, he didn't expect Chu Zhao to speak.
His eyes looked at Chu Zhao and Fan Qian, and his handsome face sank.
Previously, he also faintly found out that some of the Fan family and the barbarian Rong might collude, because there was no evidence, so he specially sent a letter to Beifu to ask Su Jingyuan to pay attention to this matter, these auspicious people knew that it was not strange, but he never linked this matter with Chu Zhao.
And yesterday, it was Chu Zhao who arrived in time to save Xiaoliu and them.
But now it seems that this matter also involves his fourth brother.
After all, the Fan family and the fourth brother are in a relationship of both glory and loss, if the Fan family is really guilty, then Chu Zhao, as the fourth prince, is equivalent to losing the biggest help.
"This palace sent a message to Beifu, it is to consult with the general of Zhenbei about the saddle of horses, and this palace, as the crown prince, does not violate the laws of the court and the central government by doing this, right?" Chu Ye asked rhetorically.
"Yin Bing had already returned to the palace before the assassination, so the prince didn't transfer her away at all." Chu Yi also stood up and spoke.
She wanted to let this matter stop there, and wait for Yu Bing's injuries to get better, and then explain to Chu Ye.
Chu Zhao stared at Chu Ye unrelentingly: "But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, he still called Yin Bing away, and almost let Yin Bing stay in the Three Princes' Mansion, and almost left Chu Yi without anyone to protect him." β
The four princes openly questioned the prince above the court, which was the first time in the world.
Even Fan Qian was surprised.
"It's me...... It's called to drink ice. β
A quiet voice came from the door of the temple.
"Three, the three princes meet ββ!"
The eunuch stammered in surprise, and his voice slowed down.
"Brother Three Emperors?"
Chu Yi looked over in surprise.
