"The twenty-seventh ring of the golden bell is the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother is ......"

Yan Mansion.

Disbelief appeared on Yan Ruxue's pretty face.

Yan Zhenlin also frowned, it was not surprising that the Queen Mother passed away, after all, she was old, and so many things had happened one after another.

Just a little sudden, on the current situation......

"Dad, will this affect the breeze?"

Yan Ruxue looked at her father.

The latter shook his head, it was difficult to say at the moment, and he couldn't be sure.

only said: "Prepare to prepare, and go to the palace with my father to mourn." ”

Palace.

At this moment, it is already plain white.

The concubines and princesses in the palace, as well as hundreds of officials in the court, have all come one after another.

Zhu Tianzheng's face was ugly, and he looked very tired, not to mention the seventh princess, kneeling in front of the coffin, crying silently, and Lily was supporting her.

Yan Ruxue wanted to step forward and comfort her, but finally dispelled her thoughts.

Because she didn't know how to comfort her.

For the seventh princess, this successive blows are indeed too cruel, and what the husband is like is still just a guess.

What's more, this kind of thing is naturally known to as few people as possible, and His Majesty didn't say it, so naturally she couldn't say it.

Because of the death of the Queen Mother, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty became busy, arranging the funeral of the Queen Mother, and many people went in and out, which was more mixed than usual.

"How?"

Yang family, in the study, as soon as Yang Guozhong entered, a voice came.

He shook his head and said, "The canonization of the crown prince is postponed, and the queen mother passes away, I am afraid that it will be impossible for a while." ”

During the mourning period, it is naturally impossible to canonize the crown prince, not to mention that the date has not been set in the first place, so it is even more impossible.

"But it's just an accident, and there shouldn't be any problems."

Yang Guozhong paused and said: "There is one thing that is very strange, all the princes and princesses of the royal family have arrived, but there is no shadow of the eldest princess. ”

The voice said, "Normal, because she left Kyoto." ”

What?

Yang Guozhong's face changed, "The eldest princess has left Kyoto?" Where did she go? ”

The voice said: "Not only did she leave, but also a group of her cronies, all of whom left Kyoto, and according to the direction they left, it is likely to be the hometown of the eight guards around the queen back then." ”

This!

Yang Guozhong's pupils shrank sharply, and a panicked look flashed, "Your Majesty, is this determined to investigate the affairs of the year?" ”

The voice said: "It seems that this is the case at present, but the people of the year have already taken care of it, as long as there is no problem on the side of the eight guards, the eldest princess will definitely return in vain." ”

Yang Guozhong's face changed.

The voice sensed something unusual and asked, "What?" You seem worried, don't you mean it's been dealt with? Is there any tail that hasn't been dealt with? ”

"Nope!"

Yang Guozhong hurriedly denied, "I'm just worried that once Your Majesty becomes suspicious, I'm afraid this matter will be suspended." ”

The voice paused, "Not necessarily, maybe I just want to verify it before the crown prince is ordained." ”

"However, it is also possible that what you said, I will send someone to keep an eye on the side of the eight guards, and you will also pay attention to every move in the palace."

"Good!"

After leaving the study, Yang Guozhong was uneasy, once Feilongwei went to Shuixi, it was possible to notice the strange death of An Sidao's family, and once this happened, peeling off the cocoon, then ......

He was a little worried, and soon found his brother Yang Guoqing.

"What? Wyvern went to Shuixi? ”

Yang Guoqing's face changed slightly, but he quickly said: "Don't worry, big brother, I won't be able to find anything over there, I'll deal with it all." ”

"If I'm really not at ease, I'll go and set the whole village on fire right now."

Yang Guozhong hurriedly said: "Absolutely not, if you go now, you just don't recruit yourself." ”

Just kidding, as soon as I checked above, there was an accident in the whole village, and I don't have to think about it to know what's going on, it's not an accident that can be explained.

Don't say that such a big village is the fire in Anjia, ordinary people may not be the same thing, but if Feilongwei goes to investigate, most of them will not come to check as an accident.

And once the suspicion above is aroused, then ......

Yang Guozhong's face turned pale.

However, what made him even more unable to sit still was still behind, because then news unfavorable to the four princes came out on the street, and the living record had already been circulated.

"Big brother, it's the second prince and the third prince who are behind the scenes, and they are still checking what happened back then."

"Secretly track down the people involved in this matter."

Yang Guoqing couldn't help but scold as he spoke, "These two bastards, at this time, they still don't give up, damn it!" ”

Yang Guozhong said: "It's not strange, but if there is a slightest possibility, they can't give up." ”

As a prince, it doesn't matter if you don't have a chance, how can you give up when you see such doubts now.

Even if they can't find any evidence, they will make a big deal about it.

Yang Guoqing said: "Then what should I do?" Do you want them to ruin the reputation of the Four Princes? ”

Yang Guozhong paused and said: "Send someone to suppress the rumors, keep an eye on the people of the second prince and the third prince with all their might, during the mourning period, try to keep a low profile, and wait for the queen mother to enter the imperial mausoleum, and then slowly settle accounts with them." ”

"Good!"

During the Great Mourning Period, all entertainment was banned throughout Kyoto, and it seemed to be silent, but in fact it was a storm.

The date of the Queen Mother's entry into the imperial mausoleum has also been determined, just seven days later.

may be too sad, coupled with the busy state affairs, Zhu Tianzheng is not in good health, and he was originally going to personally handle the funeral of the Queen Mother, but in the end it was handed over to Zhu Zhen.

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty naturally have no objections, everyone knows that Zhu Zhen is already the best candidate for the crown prince, and it is also appropriate to adapt in advance.

Yang Guozhong's hanging heart also settled down a little, but three days later, his heart sank to the bottom again, because of the news that came.

In the study, a voice sounded in the darkness: "The latest news, Feilongwei has a move in Xuzhou." ”

"Xuzhou?"

Yang Guozhong said, "Is it the hometown of Xu Wenlong, the only survivor of the Eight Great Guards?" ”

The voice said: "Yes, they also arrested someone, it is likely to be Xu Wenlong." ”

Yang Guozhong blurted out: "Impossible, Xu Wenlong has already died." ”

"Are you sure?"

The voice asked rhetorically, "I asked people to inquire, and the arrest was a butcher who suddenly went to Xuzhou more than ten years ago, and I can't be sure if it is Xu Wenlong, but when Feilongwei arrested people, someone heard their conversation, and the man said that he didn't know anything about what happened back then, and only heard the crying of two babies." ”

What!

As soon as these words came out, Yang Guozhong's face suddenly turned pale.

"Tell me, did that guard die?" The voice in the gloom also became very gloomy.

"This ......"

Yang Guozhong is not convinced, the other party was killed back then, but then the body disappeared, whether he was dead or not, he really didn't dare to pack the ticket, he was so sure before, because nothing had happened, but now......

Moreover, the other party was seriously injured and unconscious, and the others did not know, but it was indeed possible to hear the crying of two babies.

But this is the most fatal, once it reaches His Majesty's ears, then the matter of canonizing the crown prince will inevitably come to naught, at this moment, Yang Guozhong's face became extremely ugly.
