Chapter 16 Internal response, His Highness spares his life

Yixuan is not a fool, how can he listen to Queen Zhou's words.

He cultivated his own Red Shadow Pavilion and secretly dealt with many officials and eyeliners arranged by the Zhou family in the court.

Gradually, the relationship between Yixuan and Queen Zhou reached the point of incompatibility, Queen Zhou wanted to try to reconcile with him, after all, it was her biological mother and son, but Yixuan had been guarding against her and had never been close to her again.

And before Chang Yue got married, Queen Zhou always wanted Yixuan to canonize the daughter of the head of the Zhou family as the crown princess, but Yixuan not only refused, but also asked to marry the southern princess Chang Yue, which is also the main reason why Queen Zhou has a grudge against Chang Yue.

After listening to what Yixuan said, Chang Yue understood the situation of the internal affairs of the North.

To put it bluntly, the current northern court is divided into two factions, one is the Zhou family, and the other is the princelings.

The prince secretly wanted to weaken the power of the Zhou family, but before he could make any progress, he fell under the spell.

From this point of view, there is a high chance that the Zhou family will find someone to spell Yixuan.

But Yixuan said that he had been sending people to keep an eye on the actions of the Zhou family, and if the Zhou family secretly found a warlock to spell him, his secret guards would definitely find out.

Chang Yue doesn't think so, after all, according to this analysis, the only one who is most likely to harm Yixuan in the entire northern country is the Zhou family, and it seems that she has the opportunity to meet the Zhou family.

As the two were talking about this, Yan Bei suddenly walked in: "Your Highness, the emperor has sent someone over and asked the princess to go to the inner palace to relieve the curse of the concubine." ”

If the news that Chang Yue set Concubine Rong in the Internal Affairs Mansion can reach Yixuan, it will naturally reach the ears of the emperor, and Chang Yue also expects that the emperor will send someone over.

She calculated the hour, and there was only half a cup of tea left until two hours, so she didn't have to go to unravel Concubine Rong's spell, and besides, she didn't want to go.

said to Yan Bei: "You go and tell the visitor, just say that this princess is too sad because Yahuan was beaten, and she is very unwell, so she should not go out." ”

When Yan Bei heard this, he looked at Yixuan with some embarrassment, and after seeing Yixuan nodding in agreement, he went out.

Yi Xuan's deep eyes stared at her tightly, and asked: "Concubine Rong is the heart of her father, and if you provoke Concubine Rong, it is equivalent to angering your father, aren't you afraid?" ”

Chang Yue met his eyes disappreciatively, and snorted: "What is there to be afraid of, besides, there is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to support me when the sky is stepped on." ”

The implication is to let him clean up the mess for her.

Yixuan couldn't help but smile lightly, it was rare that he was still useful in her heart.

In the afternoon, as soon as Chang Yue changed the medicine for Qiaosi, someone from outside came to report, saying that she was frightened, and the emperor specially sent something over to show condolences.

I thought that the emperor would help Concubine Rong to come out, but I didn't want to wait for the emperor's punishment, but waited for the reward.

Chang Yue didn't know what the emperor meant, she was a little apprehensive, so she wanted to go to Yixuan and ask.

At that time, Yixuan was in the side hall, and there were four palace maids and two eunuchs kneeling in the hall.

They were all sent to the East Palace by Empress Zhou earlier, and it must have been one of them who told Empress Zhou about Chang Yue's use of grapefruit leaves to cleanse herself.

The six of them knelt in a row tremblingly, so frightened that they didn't even dare to come out.

Yixuan sat leisurely in front of the desk, casually wiping the long sword in his hand.

Originally, Empress Zhou had just sent them to the East Palace, and Yixuan felt that just a few subordinates had no effect on him, so he left them behind.

Now that these individuals are helping Queen Zhou deal with Chang Yue, he can't stay any longer.

Yan Bei asked for him: "Who delivered the news to the queen today, if he takes the initiative to stand up, His Royal Highness can spare him from dying." ”

As soon as these words came out, several people trembled with fright, and they all crawled on the ground and shouted: "Your Highness spare your life, Your Highness spare your life......"

They shouted for mercy, but no one came forward to admit it.

Yixuan lost his patience and said to Yan Bei in a cold voice: "Send them to the Night Trial for questioning." ”

The night court is a place in the palace that specializes in interrogating eunuchs and palace maids who commit crimes, and no one can come out alive if they enter.

At that moment, the six people were so frightened that their souls were almost gone, and five of them pointed to the eunuch kneeling on the far right at the same time and said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, it's him, today is the news he delivered to Zhaohua Palace, begging His Highness to spare us!" ”

The designated eunuch collapsed to the ground and shouted again and again: "Your Highness spares your life...... Your Highness spares ......"

For Queen Zhou's people, how could Yixuan be merciful: "Drag him down and beat him to death!" ”

Yan Bei was about to ask someone to drag him away, but saw Chang Yue push the door and enter.

"Wait a minute." She said coldly, and walked straight to the eunuch, this person had clear eyes, a full and round forehead, and cheeks that were neither wide nor narrow, and he was not a great traitor.

Thinking that he should deliver the news to Queen Zhou in the East Palace, it was just forced by the situation, after all, he was a slave to live in the palace, and he had to listen to his master.

"I'll give you a chance, as long as you listen to me obediently, I can ask His Highness to spare your life." Chang Yue whispered to him.

As soon as he heard that there was a chance to live, the little eunuch immediately rushed over and hugged Chang Yue's feet, and said eagerly: "The slave is willing to listen to the princess, please ask the princess to command." ”

Chang Yue handed him a triangular folded talisman and instructed, "Before nightfall tonight, you must put this under the queen's pillow." ”

Although this errand was a bit difficult, the little eunuch did not want to let go of this only chance to live, so he took the talisman very nervously and promised: "The slave will definitely complete the task, please rest assured princess." ”

With that, he turned around and wanted to go out, but he was too frightened, his legs and feet were floating, and the whole person almost crawled out.

As for the remaining people, although they did not send a message to Empress Zhou today, they were Empress Zhou's people after all, and Yixuan naturally couldn't continue to keep them in the East Palace, so he asked Yan Bei to drive them out of the palace.

In fact, according to Yixuan's temperament, he just threw them into the Night Court, but Chang Yue didn't want to kill innocents indiscriminately, so he asked Yan Bei to send people out.

After everyone left, Yixuan and Chang Yue were left in the hall, and he asked her with some curiosity: "What kind of talisman did you just give to that eunuch?" ”

Chang Yue pondered for a moment before she didn't answer and asked, "Do you know what animals the queen raised in Zhaohua Palace?" ”

Yixuan didn't know why she asked like this, and said straightly: "The queen mother has always disliked small animals. ”

In other words, there are no animals in Zhaohua Palace, but there is demonic energy in Zhaohua Palace.

Chang Yue told Yixuan about this, and then said: "That talisman can't hurt the queen, I just want to find out what the mystery is in her." ”

She doesn't like to fight back and forth in the palace, and if she wants to deal with Queen Zhou, she simply comes with a fatal blow, so that Queen Zhou has no power to fight back.

As for the method, Chang Yue planned to start with the demonic aura on Queen Zhou.
