Chapter 283: The Praying Mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch follows
Concubine Rong's palace.
"What did you say?"
Concubine Rong, who was originally good-looking, looked very hideous at this time, and her almond eyes were full of bloodshots: "Your Majesty wants to put the father of this palace under house arrest?" ”
"And also sent Xiao Chen and that Zhang Dongyang to investigate this matter thoroughly!"
The female official trembled, and could only grit her teeth and say, "Concubine Rong, it's true!" ”
"This is what happened in the early dynasty today, and Your Majesty really said so!"
Concubine Rong's eyes were dark, her body shook, and she almost didn't fall to the ground.
And the little palace maid beside her was quick-eyed, and hurriedly helped Concubine Rong: "Concubine Rong!" Calm down! ”
"There must be a solution to the problem......"
Concubine Rong slowly sat down in the chair and rubbed her temples, her eyes tired and angry.
She didn't expect things to develop like this!
It's really ever-changing and unpredictable.
The little palace maid also said: "Niangniang, Your Majesty said before that you will not blame Uncle Guo, but what is the situation now...... Why was the father-in-law also arrested......"
When Concubine Rong heard this, she suddenly realized something.
The Emperor seems to have been a vain and a snake before!
It's not a sincere promise to her at all!
Concubine Rong's eyes also showed anger, and she waved her hand to rebuke the ordinary maids beside her, leaving only a few henchmen.
And at this time, she directly scolded:
"What a Chu Yanwu!"
"I really don't miss the husband and wife relationship between this palace and you over the years!"
"Just believe in that eunuch like this, and even deceive the main palace!"
The female officer next to her sighed and said, "Concubine Rong, it's not that Your Majesty doesn't chant the scriptures for your husband and wife...... It's just that now, the Zhou family may really threaten him! ”
Concubine Rong can actually understand this matter.
His father and brother have too much authority and energy, and even in some ways, they have more say than Chu Yanwu, the Great Chu Emperor.
It was normal for Chu Yanwu to hold a grudge against the two of them......
But the most critical problem was that Chu Yanwu would not have done anything excessive at all because of Zhou Taifu's energy in the past.
And now!
Thinking of this, Concubine Rong was furious:
"Xiao Chen's gelding dog is really capable! He can actually bewitch Chu Yanwu! Let Chu Yanwu attack my Zhou family! ”
The furious Concubine Rong couldn't even control her emotions, and raised her hand to smash a vase to the ground.
Bang bang!
The exquisite pastel pen flower and bird amphora was smashed to pieces, and the porcelain pieces were splashed everywhere.
The palace maids and female officials at the scene also held their breath, eager to turn into wooden people.
Concubine Rong found out for a long time, and suddenly remembered something.
She slapped the table, and the corners of her mouth hooked a cold arc:
"Since that Xiao Chen dares to go against my Zhou family!"
"Then don't blame Hongu for stabbing the people next to him......"
Concubine Rong's tone was full of viciousness, like a fierce beast and poisonous snake that chooses people to devour.
The palace maids and female officials next to them had numb scalps.
Only one of Concubine Rong's personal female officials asked tentatively: "Concubine Rong, do you want to ......?"
Concubine Rong smiled coldly, her eyes were full of murderous intent: "Xiao Chen was still thinking about saving Concubine Shu before!" I think he should be very nostalgic for his old love! ”
"In that case, then the palace will first take the head of the concubine and sacrifice the flag!"
……
At the same time, Xiao Chen's house.
The autumn wind blows, the fragrance of osmanthus floats in the air, and the insects and birds chirp endlessly.
Xiao Chen sat under the eaves, sipping tea while watching the autumn colors of the garden, and standing behind him was Ji Hongluan, who was dressed in red.
It's like a beautiful picture.
At this time, a gray carrier pigeon flew from afar, crossed the tall osmanthus tree, and landed next to Xiao Chen's hand.
Xiao Chen untied the wooden barrel tied to the pigeon's leg, took out the contents and looked at it, and the corners of his mouth hooked an arc:
"And she did."
Ji Hongluan, who was waiting behind Xiao Chen, spoke: "Then should we attack to pick up Madame?" ”
Xiao Chen's eyes were indifferent and calm: "I have already sent someone to wait in the palace." ”
"You don't have to go there."
Ji Hongluan sighed.
Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows lightly again: "Are you jealous?" ”
Ji Hongluan glared at Xiao Chen: "Definitely, she is your real wife." ”
Xiao Chen laughed and took Ji Hongluan into his arms: "But you are also my little baby." ”
A quarter of an hour later, in the middle of the cold palace.
The four men in black dodged and infiltrated the cold palace.
None of them have obvious marks on their bodies, but their martial arts are indeed extremely high, and each of them has an instance of more than six grades.
And they are also the killers sent by Concubine Rong, preparing to assassinate Concubine Shu.
But when these people pushed open the gate of the cold palace, they found that the palace was empty.
They searched everywhere, even a large area next to it, but they couldn't find Shufei.
The expressions of those men changed at that time.
At this moment, there was a sudden "whoosh" sound of breaking wind behind him.
The expressions of those people changed greatly, and they pulled out the scimitar at their waist and slashed it reflexively.
There was a slight collision sound, and I saw four iron balls being knocked open.
However, those four iron balls actually exploded into a puff of purple mist in an instant.
The eyes of the four six-rank masters changed, and although they quickly pulled away, they also inhaled some poisonous gas.
Then, more than a dozen guards poured out next to him.
Although they are all women, they are heroic and strong, and the worst ones also have four-grade strength.
And those sixth-grade killers inhaled poisonous gas, and their strength dropped a lot, and they were not the opponents of these female guards at all.
Within a few dozen breaths, they were all taken down.
The female guards stepped forward quickly, and after a few punches, the killers were knocked unconscious.
The female guards acted neatly and directly brought these killers to Zhao Jieyu's palace.
Zhao Jieyu was already waiting, obviously expecting it.
She saw a few killers who had passed out, the corners of her mouth slightly curved, and her tone was full of playfulness:
"Xiao Chen is really like a god!"
"Concubine Rong really wants to attack Concubine Shu!"
"But it's a pity, the praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch is behind!"
In fact, it is not difficult to see that Xiao Chen and Zhao Jieyu were angry in advance.
After all, Xiao Chen, as the overseer of Dongchang, was already very risky to rescue Concubine Shu from the cold palace.
If his subordinates caught these killers and sent them out as a big piece of evidence, it would be even more unspeakable...... Therefore, it is necessary to rely on Zhao Jieyu's side to help.
The female officer beside Zhao Jieyu asked with a smile, "Niangniang, what should we do now?" ”
Zhao Jieyu's eyes were full of smiles:
"Naturally, I want to send my own people to see Your Majesty!"
"Concubine Rong, that guy has always been good at sueting, and she won't taste the same today! That Hongu's strength was in vain......"
After saying this, she led people to the imperial study, ready to sue!
