Chapter 320
"Do they really dare to do this while I'm not in court?!" In the deserted courtyard, Xiao Yichen looked at the spies who came to report in front of him, his eyes were full of gloom.

"Thanks to the empress, otherwise the consequences of this matter would be disastrous."

When mentioning the queen, Xiao Yichen's face was full of indifference, and he just let out a cold snort.

"What about people?"

"Returning to His Majesty, the Ninth Prince has already been deposed by the empress."

Xiao Yichen turned around slowly, looked up at the full moon that had been covered by dark clouds, he still hadn't forgotten that woman intervened in the affairs between him and King Chaha, did he do it now to make up for it?
Ninth Brother is just to blame. Back then he was merciful and spared his life. Now, do we have to force them to break up their brotherhood?Xiao Yichen could imagine how miserable the Ninth Prince's end would be if Yun Mei made a move.

The spy presented an envelope in his hand, Xiao Yichen paused for a moment, then stretched out his hand to take it and opened it.

Afterwards, a bit of sarcasm appeared on that handsome face, and she threw away the letter paper, "Martial arts are already abolished, do you still need to ask me what to do now?" He understood that this was just Yun Mei's way to claim credit, she thought She told herself how hard it was for her to get rid of the Ninth Prince, who was very popular in the court, and wanted to please herself.

This woman is still somewhat useful, this is the only thought left in Xiao Yichen's mind at this moment.As for that little cleverness, it made him feel disdainful.

If it was that person, he would only silently eradicate dissidents for himself, and never deliberately showed any hard work in front of him.This is the difference between them, and it is also the reason why Xiao Yichen can't understand Yun Mei.

She really knew how to please herself, but after a long time, Xiao Yichen gradually felt that it was boring.And every time he sees her face, those bits and pieces that he once ignored emerge in his heart.

She deliberately acted like that person in front of him, but she only had a resemblance. Every time she did this, the scene of seeing that person's body always appeared in his mind.

This is one of the few things he is extremely unwilling to recall.

"Then... do you still need to reply from the Empress?"

Xiao Yichen thought for a moment, no matter what, just treat it as a reward for her this time.

"Let her prepare for the wedding ceremony in two days' time." A slight smile appeared on the man's face, and the spy took the order and retreated respectfully.

……

In Yi Kingdom Palace.

In the luxurious pepper hall, the palace seemed to be frozen and lifeless.

In front of the gilded bronze mirror, the charming woman is gently closing her eyes, letting the two maids beside her brush her eyebrows and make up.

Suddenly, this noble woman frowned, causing the eyebrow pencil in the hands of the maids beside her to tremble in fright, her bright and sharp eyes opened instantly, and with a plop, the two court ladies immediately knelt down, "My lord, please forgive me! Please forgive me, my lord! "

Yun Mei looked at the sudden black line at the corner of her soft eyebrows in the mirror, and immediately lowered her eyes slowly, looking at the maid named her thrush, without speaking for a long time.

The court lady on the ground only felt that the sharp edge was on her back, she couldn't help shaking, and her inner clothes were already soaked in sweat.

"come over."

Unexpectedly, the always serious queen would suddenly speak to them in such a gentle voice, the maid raised her eyes suspiciously, and saw the slender fingers hanging down slightly.

There was a smile on Yun Mei's face, she hooked her index finger slightly, the maid hesitated for a moment, then moved over tremblingly.

Stretching out her hand, gently holding the maid's chin, Yun Mei smiled slightly, "Why, is this Palace scary?"

"No, no, empress is the most beautiful woman in the world!"

The most beautiful woman? !Yun Mei's eyes moved slightly, and she slowly moved to the bronze mirror, looking at the familiar face inside, it was her face, and it was also her sister's face.

The two maids noticed the empress's different expression today, and they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. It seemed that the empress was in a good mood. If it were the same as before, both of them would be beaten to death with sticks.

Maybe they will become the only ones in the Queen's Palace who made a mistake but survived?

"Ha ha……"

This relaxed laughter made the faces of the two maids immediately show flattering smiles.

Yun Mei looked at the other person, "Do you also think that Ben Gong is the most beautiful woman in the world?"

"Yes, empress, there is no one in the whole world who can match the beauty of empress." In order to please Yun Mei, the little maid deliberately exaggerated, and the noble woman in front of her slowly withdrew her hand and gently wiped away the black line at the corner of her eyebrows. Wire.

"Come here, goug out their eyes, they have eyes but no pearls, and it's useless to keep them."

ah? !The eyes of the two court ladies widened in disbelief, and the empress was clearly smiling just now, how could it be...

Immediately, guards stepped forward and dragged them down. Then, the two maids came back to their senses, and there was a shrill scream from outside.

Hmph, what she wants is not the most beautiful appearance, but the strongest man in the world and the most honorable status.

"My Majesty, Your Majesty has sent a letter."

"Come in."

There was a flash of light in Yun Mei's eyes, and the spy had already knelt in.

"What does the emperor say?"

"If you go back to the empress, the emperor will return to the palace in two days, and hope that the empress is ready for the wedding ceremony."

Yun Mei took a deep breath, this news was mixed for her.During the days when the emperor went to Chen Kingdom, she sent many letters, whether it was to explain or flatter, she did not respond in the slightest.And this time I helped the emperor solve the Nine Kings, and I can't say enough. The emperor finally reacted, which was better than ignoring her.

But, want her to prepare well for the wedding ceremony?Even if you don't need the emperor's orders, you will do it yourself.But he emphasized it like this because he wanted to tell himself that he was going to bring other women back to the palace soon, and he wanted to add to the cake for them.

This is a reward, but also a punishment!
"Understood, I will prepare well." When Yun Mei said this, there was a chilling coldness in her tone.

At this time, the guard who dragged the two maids came in, and there were two pairs of bloody eyes on the plate in his hand.

Yun Mei glanced at them lightly, and then raised a bloodthirsty smile at the corner of her mouth, "Take it and feed it to Scrophulariaceae."

Scrophulariaceae is a ferocious wolf dog that Yun Mei raised recently.

"Yes, ma'am."

……

In the Chen Kingdom Palace.

There was a strong smell of medicine in the air, the maid who was wiping the empress's body resisted the tumbling in her heart, and finally changed the last basin of water.

In just a few days, Empress Chen's legs began to turn a frightening blue-purple color, and even the imperial doctors didn't understand why the decay was so fast.

Her leg bones were completely broken, and her muscles were full of bruises, and the serious injury made Empress Chen unconscious for many days, but there was still no sign of waking up.

The silver threads on the heads of several imperial doctors increased a lot, and they did not close their eyes for many days.The emperor's situation is also extremely dangerous, they dare not imagine that if the Emperor Chen and the Empress go west at the same time, what turmoil will happen to this Chen Congress.

In the early court, the queen mother listened to the government behind the curtain.

"Is there any news about the prince yet?" The voice was majestic but tired.

"Report to the Empress Dowager that the prince has been missing for many days without any news."

A minister stood up, and everyone's faces were full of caution.Although the Empress Dowager claimed that Empress Chen was seriously ill, the news of someone washing the Phoenix Palace spread like wildfire. Although the ministers did not confirm it with their own eyes, they knew that such rumors were by no means groundless.

Even if the Empress Dowager tried her best to prevent the situation from expanding, it was inevitable that the people in the court would be unstable.

"Reporting to the Empress Dowager, the Crown Prince has been away from the palace for a long time, but now the Emperor is seriously ill but has not shown up. My servant thinks that the Crown Prince has lost his virtue, so he should appoint another sage."

"My lord Wu's words are wrong, but I think that the prince's whereabouts are unknown now, and more people should be sent to search for it. At this juncture, the government of Chen Kingdom should be united, otherwise it will be easily taken advantage of by those who want to."

"At this juncture, the prince should be in charge of the overall situation. Even if there is something important to do, he should show up in time. Presumably, all the ministers have heard the reason why the prince left the palace. Disregarding the emperor's expectations for his own selfishness is not what the prince should do. thing."

"Master Wu means that it is inappropriate for the empress dowager to take charge of the overall situation now?"

"Hmph, Mr. Li, don't try to make excuses, you know that I don't mean it! The Empress Dowager understands!"

Once again, a fierce quarrel broke out between the court and the central government. In the past few days, the court secretly searched for the prince but failed, so different voices began to appear.Dongfang Xu's measured move this time pushed him to the forefront of the storm again. Even the ministers who supported the prince before were inevitably disappointed at this time.

"quiet!"

The Grand Duke's shrill voice sounded, and the court slowly fell silent.

The Empress Dowager's eyes were full of coldness, and then she slowly opened her mouth, "At this critical moment, before any foreign enemies have attacked, you started a dispute first, and this is really an opportunity for those who are willing to take advantage of it!"

As soon as these words came out, all the ministers knelt down one after another, "Queen Dowager, calm down!"

After a long time, a voice came from behind the bead curtain, "What does the prime minister think?"

Ji Jin stood up slowly, and the surroundings suddenly became silent.

"Reporting to the Empress Dowager, I think the prince is a stable person. I am afraid that he has not been able to appear so far because he is in a difficult situation. It is imperative to send more people to search for it. We must not make things worse at the current juncture and mess up the situation in the court."

"The prime minister is right, so I will leave this matter to the prime minister. You must find out the prince! We will discuss other matters later! Retire!"

There was no more movement behind the bead curtain, and the ministers got up one after another, and several people had gathered around Ji Jin, "Does the Prime Minister have a clue?"

Ji Jin opened his mouth slightly, he noticed that not far away, several ministers were looking at his direction with special meaning, and then smiled slightly, "Don't worry, my colleagues, I believe in the emperor's vision, the prince is by no means irresponsible I will hand over this matter to this official, and I believe that news of His Royal Highness will be found soon."

The emperor was seriously ill, and even the queen was unconscious.In fact, the Empress Dowager had already summoned him in private before and told him the real situation.She had long expected that there would be people in the DPRK who wanted to be dismissed again, and now is the best time for those people to disturb the hearts of the people.Removing the prince will bring unimaginable turmoil to Chen Kingdom due to internal and external troubles.Therefore, the queen mother wants to suppress this matter with a firm stand and relying on his strength.

Ji Jin knew that this series of events was by no means accidental, even if the crown prince would feel resentful because of the Yongji County Lord, he would definitely not stand idly by right now, I'm afraid...

He couldn't help but start thinking about the worst...
