Chapter 184 Dove occupying the magpie's nest
The news of Zhao Yuanzhen waking up was not spread.

The news of His Majesty's suicide by hanging himself became known to everyone very quickly.

This matter cannot be concealed.The prince cried and passed out in the cold palace, but no one cared about him at this time.

Yu Zhende took out the imperial decree, and everyone in the palace was preparing for the new emperor's enthronement.

Chai Sujin went into the palace, saw Yu Zhende said that he wanted to see the remains of his father and the crown prince.

Under her begging, Yu Zhende asked her to see the remains of the Holy One, but he didn't let her see the Prince's face.

Chai Sujin did not challenge Yu Zhende's patience, but said that they would leave the capital when Zhao Yuanzhen woke up.

During this time, Chai Sujin has been busy planning the secrets her father left for her.

But he didn't notice that since she saw Chunlu in Zhao Yuanzhen's main courtyard, she hadn't seen her again.

What happened in the Golden Chamber Pavilion seemed to frighten Chunlu.

I heard from the servants in the mansion that she locked herself in her room all day, except for meal time, she would come out to have a meal with everyone, and there was no sign of her at other times.

Even when she was eating, she kept her head down and walked alone. The maids beside her knew that she was different from ordinary maids and had a deep relationship with her master, so they were very polite to her, and often greeted her and saluted her when they met. .

But she never paid any attention to it, she just ran away in a hurry, looking terrified.

Hearing such things made Chai Sujin feel even more guilty, and said that he frightened the child.He thought in his heart that after finishing the matter that his father told him, he must comfort her well.

And now that Chunlu is afraid of her and avoids her everywhere, it may not be effective to comfort her at this time.

It's just that Chai Sujin doesn't know that Chunlu has locked herself in the house these days, not doing nothing.

She secretly found someone to buy a lot of yellow paper for her, and when she locked herself in the house, she silently folded the paper money.

You can stack a lot in one day.

In the dead of night, when there was no one in the yard, she took the yellow paper and sneaked out of her room.

He found a secluded rockery and secretly burned the paper money, still murmuring.

People who dare to walk out at night, how can they seem to be scared out of their wits?It is clearly paying homage to the ancestors.

"Grandpa, Dad, please go away... Back then, our family was ruined because of a plate of chicken feet... Now..." Chunlu cried while burning paper money.

"what are you doing?"

The sudden voice of questioning from behind scared her to the ground.

She turned her face with tears in her eyes, and her heart was pounding in her throat.

"In the middle of the night, you don't sleep well, who are you burning the paper for?" The man held the lantern and moved towards her, "You still cry so sad?"

Chunlu sniffed, "Master, son... maidservant, maidservant..."

"Ever since you entered the palace with your sister, you have become strange and completely different from before. My sister also seems to have become a little different. During the two days and nights you were in the palace, what happened? What's the matter?" Brother Xuan, holding the lantern, squatted down next to Chunlu, and asked, staring into her eyes.

"Maid...servant..." Chun Lu was so nervous that she couldn't speak.

The place she was looking for was very secluded, let alone at night, even during the day, few people came, so how could she be discovered?
"I've been staring at you for several days, my sister said you were frightened, and told me to watch you carefully and don't tell you to do anything stupid." Brother Xuan said, "Why do you do stupid things? What frightened you?"

When Chunlu heard this, her expression became ferocious for a moment, but she quickly lowered her head and said in a muffled voice, "Didn't the young master ask who is the maidservant burning paper to pay homage to?"

Brother Xuan nodded, "Who do you pay homage to?"

"To pay homage to my young lady." Chunlu said in a deep voice.

In this quiet night, her tone sounded eerie and creepy.

Brother Xuan's face turned pale, and he punched her on the shoulder.

Chunlu snorted in pain, but didn't look up, "I pay homage to the eldest girl of the Chai family, concubine Chai, Miss Chai!"

"Bah, you girl is really going to die! Thanks to my sister for being so kind to you! She's alive and well, are you cursing her? I... I'm going to sell you girl! You wolf-hearted thing! Brother Xuan jumped up and cursed.

Chunlu reached out and grabbed the hem of his clothes, and was almost kicked by him, "Young master, listen to me slowly, when the maidservant finishes speaking, the young master will not say that he is going to sell the maidservant, even if he kills the maidservant, the maidservant will also admit it." .”

Brother Xuan frowned and stared at her closely, his chest heaved and panted heavily, as if he was very angry.

"Young Master, don't you suspect that Miss is a little... different from before?" Chunlu asked.

Brother Xuan squatted down again, looking at her suspiciously, "What do you mean? What's different?"

"My former lady, do you have medical skills? Can you write well? Can you cook tea? Know the affairs of Beijing?" Chunlu asked a series of questions.

Brother Xuan looked bewildered.

"Miss, if she knew medical skills before, and her medical skills were so good, why didn't she heal the birthmark on her face earlier? Why didn't she just make herself ugly for so long? Why didn't she cure the young master's illness earlier, so that the young master could survive so many years of humiliation ?So that your father, grandfather, and even your helpless mother couldn't see you getting better?" Chun Lu asked.

Brother Xuan shook his head again and again, "I don't remember, I don't remember anything... You know, I used to be stupid, don't ask me about the past!"

Under the light of the lantern, Brother Xuan's face seemed a little pale.

"Okay, it doesn't matter if you don't remember what happened in the past." Chun Lu took a deep breath, "Young Master should remember that mastiff, right?"

"Chi Yan?" Brother Xuan nodded again and again, "I saw it in the backyard yesterday, and played with it for a long time, it is even more majestic now!"

"Chiyan was its previous name. The son-in-law and the eldest princess had a mastiff named Chiyan before." Chunlu said.

Brother Xuan immediately interrupted her, "This mastiff is not that one! This is my sister's! Not the eldest princess's!"

"Really?" Chunlu sneered, "How do you know it's not?"

"What do you mean?" Brother Xuan gritted his teeth and looked at Chunlu.

Chunlu took a deep breath and looked at Brother Xuan's eyes, reflecting the light of a lantern, as if two flames were burning, "She is not your sister, Miss Chai is dead, she is the eldest princess, she is already dead The eldest princess who died took away your sister's body and returned to life with her dead body!"

Brother Xuan was taken aback for a while, and there was an eerie silence between the two of them.

The night wind blew across their faces.

Blowing the treetops, rustling.

The insects in the grass became quiet, as if they were holding their breath, not daring to move.

"Ha, nonsense! How could such a thing happen in the world? Chunlu, don't you hear too many ghost stories, are you hysterical?" Brother Xuan laughed, raised his hand and patted Chunlu's shoulder, "Okay It's late, it's easy to bump into dirty things when you come out alone, you must be confused, go back to sleep, wake up, it's dawn, everything will be fine."

"I'm hysterical? So is the new emperor hysterical? The princess is also hysterical?" Chunlu pushed his hand away, "Didn't you ask me what happened during the two days and nights I was in the palace? Let me tell you, she admitted Yes, she admitted it herself!"

Brother Xuan opened his mouth and looked at her, but couldn't say a word.

"Isn't it strange, my lord? You already know your enemy, so why do you still look for the Pharmacopoeia? As long as you kill your enemy, isn't the Pharmacopoeia easy to get?" Chun Lu twitched her lips, "It's because of the Pharmacopoeia "There is a secret hidden in it, that is, the secret of how the eldest princess died. She wants to know, and wants to know how she was killed in her previous life!"

Brother Xuan didn't speak, but just shook his head in a daze.

"Why did she leave Fangcheng and come to the capital? Why did she come to the capital when she didn't know the identity of her enemy? When she came to the capital, she didn't look for relatives from her natal family? It was because it wasn't her mother's natal family at all! She It's the eldest princess, and the only ones she wants to get close to are her own relatives, and her relatives are the emperor, the prince, and Lord An Guo!" Chunlu finished speaking in one breath, gasping for breath.

Brother Xuan was still in a daze, squatting on the ground, silent.

"Young Master, do you understand? She is not your sister, she is the one who killed your sister and took your sister's body!" Chun Lu bit her lower lip, "What is this called? Is it the dove occupying the magpie's nest?"

"Shut up!" Brother Xuan suddenly stood up, perhaps too abruptly, he staggered and nearly fell, "I don't believe a word, not a word! You're talking nonsense! You talk nonsense! I, I..."

"What do you plan to do, Young Master? Kill me or sell me? So that I can still treat her as my own sister without guilt?" Chunlu asked with a sneer.
