The queen is alluring

Chapter 64

"Father, don't worry, Zhan Tian believes that the empress is free and proper." Seeing Leng Zhong's sad face, Leng Zhantian quickly comforted him.

"Father and elder brother don't have to worry about this matter, but Wan'er does have something to ask when she returns home this time. I wonder if father is willing to tell the truth?" Yun Qing took the tea from Man'er and interrupted. After understanding the two people's thoughts, he said suddenly.

Leng Zhong was startled, and Leng Zhantian also paused, as if he didn't understand what Yun Qing meant.

"Your Majesty, just ask if you have any questions." Leng Zhong said with some doubts.

Yun Qing raised her eyebrows slightly, and then yearned for Leng Zhong very coldly, without beating around the bush, and said directly: "Father, can you tell Wan'er what happened before the former emperor married Wan'er to the current emperor?"

These words shocked Leng Zhong like thunder in his ears, and Leng Zhantian's body stiffened from the shock.

"Huang... What kind of rumors did Wan'er hear in the palace?" There was a flash of panic in Leng Zhong's eyes. Although he tried his best to conceal it, he still couldn't escape Yun Qing's eyes.

It turns out there really is.Yun Qing lowered his eyelashes, judging from Leng Zhong's flustered expression just now, this matter must be serious.

"Wan'er didn't hear any gossip, but I believe that my father can also feel the emperor's fear of the Leng family. Before the emperor died, he suddenly ordered me to betroth the unborn me to the prince. It was nothing more than to restrain my father. , you don’t need to be told by others, you just need to see with your eyes.” Yun Qing’s tone was light, but with unquestionable affirmation.

Leng Zhong was silent, as if he was struggling whether to tell the truth to Yun Qing, he pouted his eyebrows tightly, and after a long time, he sighed, and said slowly: "It's a long story, but it's actually for my father. I don't know what happened back then. However, when the old emperor Ba Xian Wang was still in court, he reminded me that the prince's medicinal food was poisoned, thanks to a maid named Yan'er who tried the medicine in advance, otherwise it would be unthinkable. Afterwards, Imperial Physician Chang, whom I have been friends with for a long time, was ordered by the late emperor to ransack his family and exterminate his family, and later on, the late emperor became afraid of the old officials in the court."

"There are not many old ministers in the court now," Leng Zhantian added, frowning after hearing Leng Zhong's words.At that time, when this incident happened, he was still young, but he clearly remembered the panic-stricken catastrophe.

Leng Zhong's face became serious. These things have been in his heart for more than ten years. He originally thought that he would keep it a secret forever, but since his daughter stepped into the harem today, this matter has a bearing on the entire Leng family. The lifeblood of the clan should indeed be known to Wan'er.

So, he said eloquently: "Yes, there are almost no veterans in the court, because since the prince was poisoned in Xuande 41, the elders of several dynasties above the court have problems with their connections. The servant of the Ministry of War was imprisoned and ransacked his home because of the crime of collaborating with the enemy, and then the Minister of the Ministry of Officials was assassinated and his body was separated. Then, the Eight Worthy King Ling Yue and the uncle Wang Yanying among the three assistant ministers retired and returned to their hometowns one after another..."

After these things happened, on the one hand, the first emperor comforted the ministers and sent people to thoroughly investigate and pursue the culprits. Palace countermeasures', personally select talents to fill the vacancies in the imperial court.

It has been more than ten years since the crown prince was poisoned. Regarding the fact that the first emperor replaced almost all the court ministers in the few months before his death, the civil and military officials of the court are still in a state of anxiety, because many people are guessing. , who will be the next to be replaced and ransacked.

However, just when the matter was panicking, the matter came to an abrupt end after Xuande's 45th year of offering sacrifices to heaven.

The 45th year of Xuande's sacrifice to heaven was the time when the first emperor proposed marriage for Leng Wan'er and the prince.

"So, father and elder brother don't know the inside story of this matter?" Yun Qing's eyes flashed with surprise. She didn't expect that the little emperor's jealousy of the Leng clan would be so involved. Even this matter There was a bloody storm in the court.

"Yes." Leng Zhong nodded, and sighed: "The first emperor's heirs are few, and only King Shou and the emperor survive under his knees. Although the inner palace will not cause chaos, the four princes who peep at the throne of the Xuanye Dynasty have been eyeing them all the time. He never let go of his guard, but something happened to the prince, which almost ruined the world of the Ling family."

Yun Qing was silent, but couldn't help but feel a sense of suffocation that he had never felt before about the bloody scene ten years ago.It seemed that no matter whether she could lift the veil of mystery, she would not be able to escape an inevitable turmoil.

Because only Ling Yexuan knew what happened ten years ago.

On a cold autumn night, on the top of the moon, the dark clouds in the sky are slowly moving, but they can't hide the bright and bright light.

In the backyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion, everything was silent, and the cold moonlight slanted into the bedroom with slightly bulging curtains, breaking and mottled all over the place.In front of the huge bed, the drapes made of agate tourmaline beads are thin and dense, reflecting under the hibiscus-colored quilt, the peaceful and immature face sleeping soundly.

Suddenly, there was a slight sound of rubble above the eaves, as light and fast as a gust of wind, without even the slightest gap, and then a strange black shadow flashed past the window, and the moment the clothes rustled, a stick like a fire Mixiang, like a booklet, has already entered the room and rolled down on the table a few times.

Under the faint pale moonlight, the fire folds under the case flickered flickeringly and dimly, and faintly emitted emerald green smoke, which was extremely fragrant.

Still.

A moment later, the door of the dormitory was pushed open, and a tall figure flashed into the room, rolled briskly on the ground to the front of the bed, with a bang, the dagger was unsheathed, and pierced the slightly bulging bedding quickly with a cold light. .

However, the hard object touched by the dagger and sword made Sombra instantly stiff. He nimbly and quickly withdrew the dagger, but at this moment, his neck was pinched by a cold little hand, and two fingers Just against the aorta of his neck.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time..." Yun Qing's voice was calm, without any emotional ups and downs, but there was a chill that shocked people's hearts and souls.

The body of the man in black straightened instantly. He turned his head and looked behind him, only to see a six or seven-year-old girl standing behind him. Under the hazy moonlight, her delicate face was tender and delicate, but those dark and watery eyes But his eyes were shining with wisdom and... arrogance and coldness that did not match his age.

She is... Xuanye Kingdom's rumored, extremely intelligent and enchanting queen, who he wants to kill.

Seeing the shock in the man's eyes, Yun Qing raised her red lips with a sly smile, and slowly approached the man's face, exhaling the orchid-like breath of the empty valley, but her voice was extremely cold: "Just you A few tricks, you are not worthy of using an ax in front of me."
