Chapter 410 Xiyue Arrested
Following Xiyue's instructions, Xinlan lowered her head and walked quickly towards Jingde Road.

Shen Qing has already said that this time is exactly when the defense is handed over, and it is the best time for them to escape.If so, passing the corner, the whole road was extremely cold, and the front was so dark that there were no street lights.

The cold wind was blowing, maybe it was because Xin Lan was too nervous, she only felt that she could only hear her own footsteps on the road, which made her more uneasy.

She kept thinking silently in her heart that as long as she reached Shunde Road, she would be safe after reuniting with the empress, don't think about anything and don't be afraid... However, her hands still couldn't help shaking, and she pulled her cloak, but she didn't He noticed that in the attic not far away, a sharp gaze was closely watching her every move.

Seeing that after another intersection, the gate of Shunde Palace could be seen, Xin Lan's eyes gradually shone, as if victory was just ahead.

Unexpectedly, after taking a few steps forward, bright candles suddenly lit up at the intersection, Xinlan froze, and from the corner of her eyes, she caught a glimpse of tall figures standing on the avenue to the left of the intersection, with lights in their hands. The torch seemed to have opened up an invisible net, completely enveloping the thin and small her.

"Who is coming!"

The serious voice of the headed Eastern Palace guard echoed in the wind. Xinlan didn't turn around, but just stood at the fork. The strong pressure finally broke her last sliver of control.

"Ah—" A shrill scream erupted from the slender body under the cloak, and she ran away suddenly, rushing straight towards the gate of Shunde Palace.

"Chase!"

The gust of wind lifted Xinlan's hat when she started running. After running for an unknown amount of time, she saw the gate of the Shunde Palace in front of her eyes. She suddenly swayed, stepped on her skirt, and fell forward.

At this time, countless long swords pointed straight at her, and those icy footsteps surrounded her. Xinlan was panting heavily, and at some point, her face was already wet with tears.

"Crown princess, let's get caught!"

"no no……"

What?Now that the princess of Yi Kingdom still wants to resist?The commander of the guards of the Eastern Palace frowned, picked up a torch and shone it in front of Xinlan, the woman on the ground slowly raised her head, this glance surprised the commander.

"No, servant girl, servant girl is not the crown princess..."

the other end.

Xiyue suddenly raised her head and looked in the direction of Jingdelu. She wondered if it was her illusion that she seemed to have heard Xinlan's voice just now.

Hmph, that idiot, did you really think he would take her away?He just wanted to use her to distract those people's attention.

Shen Qing's words were already unbelievable. After so many things, Xiyue thought for a long time, and felt that there must be a traitor by her side. Xinlan didn't have the guts yet, and the only possibility was Shen Qing!
This can also explain why he failed to frame Du Yuanxiu again and again, and the news seemed to have leaked out long ago.The reason why she still keeps Shen Qing is because she thinks he can still be useful.Shen Qing will definitely tell Prince Chen about Jingdelu's defense, then Jingdelu will become a trap.

This trap was dug by Xiyue herself, so she sent a Xinlan over there.

Walking quickly on the deserted path, Xiyue remembered very clearly that Wu Huiyun used this path to take them to the palace.

The closed gray palace door was right in front of her eyes, Xiyue finally showed a relaxed smile on her face, as long as she passed through that window, she could disappear into the woods, and finding the way was as easy as pie.

I don't want to, my feet slipped suddenly, "Hey——"

She fell heavily on the steps, her ankle twisted, and the severe pain accompanied by a strong numbness filled her entire calf.

"Damn it!" He sprained his foot at this moment!

Xiyue looked bitterly at the protruding black shadow on the ground, stretched out her hand to pick it up, and saw that it was a round and huge pebble!Why are there pebbles in this place?The dark clouds dispersed from above her head, and the moonlight fell on her body. Only then did Xiyue see clearly that there were several cobblestones falling in front of the stairs, scattered in twos and twos.

"It seems that the princess's luck is not as good as mine."

A cold voice sounded from behind, Xiyue was startled, and immediately turned around, "Who?!"

She raised her head in surprise, only to see a woman slowly coming out of the shadows. The other person's eyes were indifferent, but there was a sarcastic smile on the corner of her mouth.

"Du, Du Yuanxiu?!"

"The princess is so late, and she is walking so fast, where is she planning to go?" Du Yuanxiu's tone was devoid of any emotion, as if she didn't see Xiyue's distressed appearance at the moment.

Xiyue slowly moved her body, and looked behind Du Yuanxiu vigilantly. She didn't know why the other party appeared here, and her mind was shocked, "You put this pebble?!"

"I'm just imitating the crown princess."

"Hehe, I can't blame me for this matter. If you fall obediently, your sister won't be hurt." Xiyue felt that there was no need to hide anything at this moment, as the other party had already prepared for it.

Du Yuanxiu's eyes turned cold, but he didn't answer her.

In the shadows, Xiyue's hand slowly reached into her sleeve, Du Yuanxiu alone was no match for her at all.

"It's so late, the crown prince and side concubine can't stay in the palace well, what are you doing out there? Or is it that Mrs. Feng has had a miscarriage, and the crown prince and side concubine is in such a good mood that she wants to come out late at night to admire the moon?" She said with sarcasm, Du Yuanxiu Her heart was poked full of wounds.

She changed her usual docile appearance, and her cold voice flowed out slowly.

"I am here to avenge my sister."

revenge? !This doesn't seem like something that would come out of Du Yuanxiu's mouth.In Xiyue's impression, even if she suffers such a big loss, she should swallow it all by herself!

"...Only by you?"

Xiyue's eyes turned cold, Du Yuanxiu immediately took a few steps back vigilantly.

"Of course, it's not just me."

There was a sound of hurried footsteps, and in the blink of an eye, a large group of guards had appeared in front of Xiyue.

The shining long sword made Xiyue's eyes widen. In the bright candlelight, Xiyue saw that familiar face.

"Shen Qing, it really is you!"

Shen Qing had no expression on his face, he was always close to the prince, even if he had any affection for Xiyue, it was just to sympathize with this poor woman.

"As early as you left the Taiwo, Bengong immediately notified Shen Wei."

Several guards stepped forward to protect Du Yuanxiu, but Xiyue still didn't give up and secretly calculated her chances of winning.

Just as she was about to scatter the poisonous powder in her final struggle, a flash of silver light suddenly picked up the bundle on her shoulders. "Ah, what are you doing?! Return the burden to Ben Gong!"

Shen Qing ignored the abuse from the woman on the ground, and put away the burden.He has noticed that from just now until now, Xiyue has been holding this burden tightly, it seems that it is very important to her.

There were bursts of tingling pain in her ankle, and as long as she moved lightly, the pain was unbearable.

"If the Crown Princess puts her hands in her sleeves again, don't blame her subordinates for being rude!" Shen Qing noticed Xiyue's small movements, pointing several long swords at her neck, with a cold killing intent .

At this moment, Xiyue finally knew what it was like to be cornered.There was her antidote in that bundle, even if she escaped, she would not be able to return to Yun's house alive.

Staring at Du Yuanxiu in the crowd, Xiyue had a terrifying smile on her face.However, the other party didn't have the slightest fear, and just looked at her.

"Take her down!"

Immediately someone stepped forward and set Xiyue up.

However, when passing by Du Yuanxiu, Xiyue stopped in her tracks and refused to move forward.She stared with resentful eyes, "Do you think you won? Do you think that you will end up better than me in the future?! Hehehe... Look, the prince is no longer the prince you know, look at it , what will happen to you!"

"Take her away!" Shen Qing frowned, what was this crazy woman talking about.

"The crown prince's side concubine, Tian Han, go back, I will leave this place to my subordinates."

Du Yuanxiu responded lightly, looking at the woman who was being pushed down with a crazy smile, recalling what she said just now.

The prince is no longer the prince he used to be. How could Du Yuanxiu not know this.She was looking at him all the time.I have always admired him.How could he be unaware, since the death of His Majesty Chen Huang, the crown prince has changed little by little.

However, who will remain the same?

Whether it is him or her.

……

"Your Highness, Princess Yi has been taken down."

In the bright imperial study room, Dongfang Xu lowered his head, with a stack of memorials in hand.Although he has not yet ascended the throne, he is already familiar with what he should do as an emperor.

He responded lightly, but he didn't stop the brush in his hand.

"Your Highness, it has been confirmed that it was Princess Yi who caused Mrs. Feng's miscarriage." The father-in-law stood aside, waiting for Dongfang Xu's words on how to deal with this troublesome Princess Yi.kill her?What should Yi Kingdom Xiaohuang do?

Dongfang Xu finally stopped. He took a deep breath and raised his head without any expression on his face.

"Put her in the sky prison and keep her under strict guard. Don't worry about the rest."

What does His Highness mean, to let her fend for herself? "The servant understands..."

The father-in-law retreated quietly, sighing in his heart.He also thought that this time Princess Yi would definitely die.Everyone knows that she is a spy sent by Emperor Xiao to Kingdom of Chen, and now His Highness still saves her life, is it because she was kind to His Highness last time?

The father-in-law found that he couldn't see through Dongfang Xu more and more.

Slowly walking to the window, Dongfang Xu looked up at the full moon covered by dark clouds, his eyes were vague.He had already ordered people to watch Xiyue secretly, and as soon as there was any movement in the prison, no matter who came to visit, he would take it down immediately.As long as there are Xiao Huang's people in the Chen Kingdom Palace, in order to prevent Xi Yue from revealing other things, Xiao Huang will definitely let people kill her to silence her.

A gust of cold wind blew by, but a strange voice came.

"Your Highness, are you waiting for me?"
