The palace of the Wu Dynasty launched an unprecedented purge campaign.

From the Yongle Palace of Emperor Wu to the court where the palace maids lived, there were all figures of the Internal Affairs Office and the Praetorian Guard.

"This is the queen's bedroom, how dare you trespass without permission?"

Ginkgo stood at the door of the queen's Jiaofang Palace, stopping the eunuchs and janissaries of the Internal Affairs Office who wanted to break in.

"Aunt Ginkgo, this can't be blamed on the little ones for being abrupt, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has ordered that the three palaces and six courtyards of the harem must strictly check the whereabouts of the assassins, and please ask Aunt Ginkgo to be accommodating, don't make it difficult for the little ones."

As soon as Li Yunxing was mentioned, Ginkgo was dissatisfied.

He was so ruthless to King Zhaoyang, and now he has found them again.

"Our palace is full of maids and eunuchs, and there is no assassin you are looking for, get out!"

Ginkgo stretched out his hand and prepared to close the palace door, but he was stopped by the forbidden army.

Today they witnessed the tragic situation of Zhen Maochang, saying that it was the 20th board, but in fact, it was extremely heavy, and half of his life was wasted if he didn't die.

Exiled to the frontier, I'm afraid that if you can't even survive the middle, you will die.

They don't want to be like Zhen Maochang, so they have to find out today.

"Miss Ginkgo, our Praetorian Guard is not the same as the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and we will discuss it with you. If the Praetorian Guards want to investigate, no one can stop them! ”

Ginkgo's eyes widened, "The queen's bedroom is a women's boudoir, how can you allow a vulgar martial artist to be wild here?" ”

The armor-clad guard frowned: "So, you just don't plan to cooperate?" ”

Ginkgo sneered: "What? You have all become the lackeys of the crown prince, and you can even ignore the queen? ”

The Praetorian Guard had no intention of fighting too much with her.

After all, in these three palaces and six courtyards, there are thousands of rooms that have to be checked one by one.

If they keep spending time with this yellow-haired girl, they will only lose their own time.

"Then don't blame you for being polite."

The Praetorian Guards pushed the ginkgo aside, and more than a dozen forbidden soldiers quickly poured in from both sides of the door, standing in a row in the corridors on the left and right sides of the Jiaofang Palace.

Many maidservants and eunuchs were so frightened that they screamed in succession.

The Praetorian Guards led by them also directly strode into the Jiaofang Palace, no matter how Ginkgo cursed, they all turned a deaf ear.

The movement in the front yard disturbed the queen.

The queen was dressed in a phoenix robe and was supported by several personal grandmothers to the front hall.

Seeing the situation clearly, she suddenly raised her eyebrows, and her anger was monstrous: "It's just the opposite!" Hongu isn't dead yet! These people dare to make a move on the dormitory of the main palace! Is it really a soft persimmon in this palace, let others handle it? ”

"I'm sorry to disturb the queen. But this is not the meaning of lowly office, but the prince commanded ......"

"Smack-"

Without waiting for the commander of the forbidden army to finish speaking, the queen raised her hand and slapped him.

"The prince asked you to search, and you did what you were told. Is it true that all your forbidden armies are under the command of the crown prince? The palace is the master of the harem, what is the prince? ”

The Praetorian Guards felt their faces hot, but they didn't dare to refute it.

He could only bow his head and continue, "Today, Imperial Physician Xia wanted to poison the prince, and he was assassinated on the way to the prison. None of the six guards survived, this matter is related to the safety of the entire harem, and the queen is asked to investigate! ”

The queen was shocked: "Imperial Doctor's Order? Poisoning? ”

The commander of the Praetorian Guard nodded: "Yes, Imperial Physician Xia was killed on the way to the prison, according to the prince's inference, the murderer is very likely to be hiding in the harem, so he sent a lowly official to lead the forbidden army to search." Because Aunt Ginkgo has been blocking it, she made an initiative to forcibly break in, hoping that Niangniang will forgive her sins! ”

Hearing this, Liu Ruxu was shocked.

This is different from the countermeasures she discussed with Xia Cassia Ming, she originally planned to poison the prince on his birthday, why did Xia Cassia suddenly act privately?

Could it be that my father is getting in the way?

Thinking of this, Liu Ruxu's eyes suddenly turned cold.

She slowly raised her head, stared sharply at the Janissary Captain, and asked word for word, "Is it necessary to mobilize the people so much for the search?" Or do you think the murderer is in the Jiaofang Hall of the main palace?! ”

The queen's face sank.

She had been weak and mentally weak lately, and she had managed to sleep peacefully and was woken up by the Praetorian Guards, and now she was even more annoyed.

"I'm curious, who ordered you to search this palace?"

The Janissaries' scalps tingled.

He is very familiar with the queen's temperament, if he answers incorrectly and annoys the queen, I'm afraid he won't be able to eat and walk around!

"It was instructed by Hongu." Li Yunxing's voice sounded at the right time.

Liu Ruxu was slightly stunned, and when she saw Li Yunxing striding over, her face was even more serious than ever.

"Queen Mother, someone is making trouble in the palace, this palace thoroughly investigates the harem for the safety of the emperor and all the mothers, presumably the queen mother will not stop it, right?"

She let out a deep breath.

"But casually entering and exiting the Jiaofang Palace, wouldn't it mess up the rules of the harem, and there is no precedent in front of the emperor!"

"Rules are dead, people are alive." Li Yunxing said, "As long as the queen is willing to cooperate, the process of searching the harem will naturally not be affected in the slightest." ”

Li Yunxing smiled faintly, but his attitude was extremely persistent.

Liu Ruxu pursed her lips and clenched her fists quietly.

Li Yunxing insisted on pursuing it like this, I am afraid that it has been verified that Xia Jieming died in the harem.

If she refuses to search, she will inevitably go to the emperor, and she will definitely become the target of public criticism at that time.

"Queen Mother, the patience of this palace is not enough." Li Yunxing's tone was steady, but his words were full of threats.

"In that case, let's search it!" Liu Ruxu said indifferently and turned around, "But the ugly words of this palace are said in front first, the prince's move is unethical, and the emperor will be furious once he knows about it." ”

Li Yunxing hooked his lips and smiled, "The affairs of this palace don't have to worry about the queen's mother." ”

Then, the Praetorian Captain beside him waved his hand at the Praetorian guards behind him.

In an instant, dozens of Praetorian Guards rushed up and rampaged through the huge Jiaofang Palace, rummaging through all the corners that could hide people.

However, there was no gain.

"How can there be no one? Could it be that the assassin wasn't hiding in the Jiaofang Hall at all? Li Yunxing's eyebrows condensed slightly, as if he was talking to himself.

Liu Ruxu sneered and sneered: "His Royal Highness the Prince, but if you can't catch the assassin, you want to come to the Jiaofang Palace to deal with the matter?" ”

"You-" Li Yunxing's face darkened.

Liu Ruxu didn't bother to pay attention to it and left directly.

Li Yunxing narrowed his eyes. He clearly received the news that after he injured Queen Zhaoyang, Xia Cassia had always been treating King Zhaoyang.

If you don't make some kind of deal with the queen, how can you risk poisoning yourself?

Damn it! Li Yunxing blackened his face and returned to the East Palace with a group of guards.

At this time, the entire palace was being searched, but unfortunately, there was still no result.

In the middle of the night, Li Yunxing lay on the couch, tossing and turning.
