After remarrying with my mother, I walked across the capital by hugging my thigh

The queen mother took a sip of tea, and the old mother took the teacup and continued.

"Look, empress dowager, the lord did not delay at all on this important matter! The servants also heard that now in the court, the prince's party has been taken care of by the lord. In a short period of time, can you Only our lord is the only one to clean up the court with such thunderous means!"

"Clear is really clear, stupid is really stupid!"

The queen mother was also helpless.

Not to mention that Mu Zheng has grown up now, even when he was young, no one could influence his thoughts.

After Mu Zheng left the main hall, he went to the west side hall.

Lin Youyi was eating the pastries prepared for her by the small kitchen of Changning Palace.

While eating, I was full of praise.

"The dim sum in the empress dowager's palace not only looks exquisite, but also tastes delicious."

Xing'er was greedy by Lin Youyi, and swallowed hard.

Lin Youyi saw it, smiled and waved for Myolie to sit down and eat together.

As soon as Xing'er happily sat down, she saw Mu Zheng's figure appearing in front of the palace gate.

She quickly retracted the hand she had just extended, and stood up angrily.

"My servant has seen Prince Rui."

"The lord is here!"

Lin Youyi followed Xing'er's gaze, turned her head to look over, and said hello happily.

"Really so delicious?"

"My lord has been used to eating since childhood, so naturally I don't think so!"

Looking at Lin Youyi's greedy cat-like appearance, Mu Zheng couldn't help chuckling.

"Eat more if you like."

"I can't eat any more, I'm going to be exhausted!"

While Lin Youyi was speaking, she hiccupped unapologetically.

Her face flushed, making Mu Zheng laugh outright.

Lin Youyi quickly picked up the pastry plate and handed it to Myolie, signaling her to go out first.

Xing'er happily hugged the pastry, and quickly exited the hall.

"Isn't your lord busy with something?"

"Nothing is as important as you! But after seeing you little fox, I realized that in your heart, I am afraid that nothing is as important as eating!"

"That's not true! The prince came here so late, I'm afraid it's not just to make fun of me?"

"I'm not kidding you! I know you're bored here with your mother, so I'll bring some news to relieve your boredom."

"Good news or bad news?"

"It's hard to say whether it's good or bad! Xiao Qinyao has already returned to the Marquis Mansion, but she didn't leave with Mrs. Liang. I heard that she stayed to serve the old lady."

"It turned out to be bad news! Hey, I guessed that she would not be dismissed so easily! She said to be sick, so let's do it. The old lady will recover from her illness. Let's see what tricks she can come up with."

"Let her have any tricks, could it be that you little fox can't cure her?"

"I'm too lazy to talk to her!"

"Second thing, Huo Qiming has found out who killed the prince!"

"who is it?"

"you guess!"

"My lord, you said that this person must belong to the East Palace, and he should be the prince's neighbor! Could it be that the prince's bodyguard is Yu Xian?"

Mu Zheng shook his head lightly.

"My lord asked me to guess, which means I must know this person, but it's hard to guess! It can't be...Xiao Qinyao, right?"

Lin Youyi's eyes widened instantly, and she looked at Mu Zheng in disbelief.

Mu Zheng still shook his head.

Lin Youyi was instantly discouraged, but she obviously felt relieved.

"Who is that?"

"It's someone you can't guess!"

"Then you still let me guess? Don't guess!"

"It's Yan Youning!"

"Ah? How could it be her? Isn't she still pregnant with the prince's flesh and blood? If the prince dies, what good will it do her?"

"It's more than a benefit, it's a way of life!"

Lin Youyi was still in shock and did not react.

She really couldn't guess that the crown prince would die in Yan Youning's hands in the end.

But why?
Lin Youyi thought about it, and asked unconsciously.

"Why else, it's just for self-protection!"

"But she didn't keep herself! If she didn't rely on the royal blood in her belly, she would have been buried by the prince now!"

"That's not the case! Silly girl, the burial was an accident. Leaving aside the burial, do you think it's more beneficial for Yan Youning to live, or dead?"

Lin Youyi nodded clearly.

That's right, the matter of burial was specially set up by Mu Zheng for Xiao Qinyao.

Before this, let alone Yan Youning, I am afraid that apart from Mu Zheng, no one else will know about it!

Lin Youyi blurted out following Mu Zheng's words.

"That's naturally living..."

Lin Youyi was about to say "alive", but when the words came to her lips, she hesitated again.

Thinking about it carefully, times have changed, even if the crown prince is still alive, he is already a traitor who has attempted rebellion!

In this way, it is naturally not the same.

"If the prince is still alive, then he is a traitor, and Yan Youning is a criminal wife! Regardless of whether the emperor decides to punish the prince on the spot, or demote him as a commoner and exile him for thousands of miles, Yan Youning will definitely be guilty of the same crime! However, once But the prince is dead..."

Lin Youyi seemed to gradually understand the key to this, he hesitated suddenly while talking.

It's not that I can't figure it out, but after I figured it out, I couldn't help but feel the chills all over my body.

Mu Zheng followed her words.

"Now, the prince is dead, and he is still hanging himself in fear of crime. It is very likely that the sins and crimes he has done before will be forgotten and written off! Even if he can't, as the prince's widow and posthumous child, In any case, the emperor will not blame their mother and son."

"So that's it! Yan Youning killed the prince just to protect herself and the flesh and blood in her belly? Sure enough, the husband and wife are birds of the same forest, and they fly separately in the face of disaster! Oh, but the old saying didn't let Yan Youning kill the male bird first Fly again!"

Lin Youyi sighed sincerely.

However, after a second thought, she quickly raised her head to look at Mu Zheng again.

"Then the prince has thought about it, how to deal with Yan Youning? Right now, she is still pregnant, even if she wants to kill her, will she have to wait until she gives birth to a child before subjugating the law?"

"This, I don't need to worry about this king! The life and death of Yan Youning is decided by the emperor! But..."

"But what?"

"However, this time, Yan Youning's methods are ruthless, but what he does is clean and beautiful!"

"My lord, what do you say?"

"Huo Qiming just found out that it was Yan Youning's dowry maid who mixed peanut oil into the prince's meals. However, when he led people to the East Palace, Yan Youning's dowry maid left a confession letter, fearing the crime. Suicide!"

"And the confession? It's quite well prepared!"

Lin Youyi snorted and chuckled lightly.

No one would readily accept such a coincidence, right?
