Song of Peach Blossoms: Alluring Princess

Chapter 380 Secret Decree
The carriage was bumping, Su Tiange was blindfolded and couldn't see the surroundings while sitting in the carriage, holding Concubine Li's child in his arms.Thinking back carefully about the events before she fell into a coma, she followed Concubine Li to the palace in a panic, and let bloodletting make a soup.Concubine Li followed her and set up a stove in the small courtyard to decoct the medicine because she was worried about others handling it.

It is said that all the servants and maids in the courtyard were sold by Xiao Yan to Zhan Sha. Except for the guards standing around the courtyard, there was no one else in the courtyard.

After a bowl of medicine was cooked, she took the medicine bowl into the room to feed the medicine.Concubine Li waited for a while before following into the room. She heard a bang, turned her head and saw Concubine Li fell to the ground, and the princess standing outside the door was holding a wooden stick.

The next memory is the sound of chaotic footsteps in the house, and when she wakes up, she is bumping back and forth in the carriage with a child in her arms.She didn't know what the other party's intentions were, if it was to kill her, she could do it inside the house, but if it was to kill the child, then why wait for her to finish feeding a bowl of medicine before doing it, and tie her and the child together.

And Prince Yan, who looks so weak, is actually the person who hides the deepest in Prince Yan's mansion. What is she doing?This unexpected feeling made her feel a little flustered.Shen Yu was called to the study by the Duke at that time, so I don't know if he saw the message she left?

The carriage drove to the unknown, and the entire capital city was in chaos.

First, a fire broke out in the main courtyard of Prince Yan's Mansion, the princess was buried in the flames, and the young prince of Prince Yan's Mansion disappeared.Most importantly, the Crown Princess of the Duke of Qing's Mansion disappeared along with her.

Shen Yu stood sullenly in the court of the Yamen of the Ministry of Punishment. Half an hour ago, he came out of the study and returned to his room. Lu Luo said that Tian Ge took Lilac to follow Concubine Li of Prince Yan's Mansion to detoxify people.He didn't take it seriously either, after all, the two mansions were only separated by a few courtyards, so if something happened, he could rush there immediately.

But it is this reassurance that makes him regret it now. When the fire broke out in the sky above Prince Yan's mansion, he rushed over immediately. The people in the mansion rushed to put out the fire. Xiao Yan.

The fire was extinguished, and only the body of the princess was found in the collapsed and burned house. Concubine Li, who was knocked out, confirmed that the fire was set by the princess, and Tian Ge and the child were taken away.

After searching in the ruins, I found a secret passage in the princess's bathroom, which leads directly to an uninhabited house behind Fugui Lane.There were ruts in the middle of the yard, and they disappeared all the way out of the yard to the street in front of the gate.

"My lord, our people have already been scattered, and the final destination of the carriage can be found within two hours at the earliest. But the subordinates are worried that the carriage never left the city at all, because it took only an hour before and after, but after chasing it out, there was no problem." Found the slightest trace." Lin Shan shared his own analysis, who would be so bold to rob a royal concubine and a little prince under the emperor's feet?

"Is there any news from Prince Yan's Mansion?"

"Prince Yan is also in a state of desperation. The princess who has always been honest and responsible is actually a pawn arranged by others. He is going crazy." The news Lin Shan got from Wangfu was that Xiao Yan almost sent out all the soldiers in the government, and even used The power behind him.

"Withdraw some people and start looking for two alleys from Fugui Lane. From two hours ago to now, all the carriages passing in and out have to find detailed information." After finishing speaking, Shen Yu raised his foot to leave the yamen.

"Sir, you..."

"I'm going to meet Prince Yan, why is there someone staring at his son."

It's just that before Shen Yu got the news from Xiao Yan, rumors from the outside world had already started.

Huh, huh, shattering, the sound of cracking cups in the imperial study room mixed with Xiao Xuan's violent shouting drifted far away, "Go and investigate for me, and find out who is behind the scenes!"

"Your Majesty, calm down. Your ascension to the throne and proclaiming yourself emperor is based on the imperial decree of the first emperor, which is justified. Everything you have done for the people of Dali after your ascension to the throne has been seen by the ministers. You must not be so angry because of a rumor. The trap." Qing Guogong was in the middle of the imperial study, bowed his head and cupped his hands.

"Forbearance, how long do you want me to endure? Let me find someone, even if you dig the ground three feet and turn the capital over and over again, you still have to find someone." Xiao Xuan supported the table, anger and worry welled up in his heart.

He is trembling on the throne, lest he fail to do well, do those with ulterior motives know when he wakes up and sleeps?It can be seen that he repeatedly deliberated and asked repeatedly for a government order?Do you know how much he has endured alone so far?
They didn't know anything, so they said with a click of their teeth that the first emperor had issued a secret decree to Prince Yan, asking him to pass the throne to Xiao Yan's son!absurd!What will his son do by then?Could he also issue a secret decree to take the throne back from Xiao Yan's son?

As soon as the secret decree came out, those who questioned his throne jumped out again. What's more, they even said that he asked Su Tiange to poison Xiao Yan's children, and wrote and acted himself.And because the child died, Xiao Yan killed Su Tiange, and then pretended that it had nothing to do with him.

No matter what kind of rumor it was, it was unbearable for him, and he had to find out this person.

"Good luck, Empress Dowager!" Hou Zhi's servant outside the imperial study hurriedly knelt down and saluted the Empress Dowager Chen.

Xiao Xuan exhaled and waved his hands to let Qing Guogong and others go out first, Empress Dowager Chen raised her feet and entered the study, and waved her hands to let the servants close the door.

"Why is the queen mother here?"

"Aijia heard about those messages outside, and came to make a decision for the emperor." The Empress Dowager looked at Xiao Xuan, and saw his frowning.

"The son will handle these messages by himself, the queen mother..."

"Then tell the Ai family, what are you going to do?" The Queen Mother stared at Xiao Xuan, finally sighed and said: "Your Majesty has a kind heart, and it's not the first time that those wolfish and ambitious things have used this to cause trouble."

"It's just that the message this time is slightly different. They directly poked at His Majesty's throne. This is the intention to usurp the throne. Think carefully, Your Majesty, who else in the world is qualified to take this throne?"

"But Prince Yan didn't need to kill his own child, did he? Where would his bargaining chips come from?"

"Whoever says it will definitely not be Prince Yan. As long as anyone can benefit from this matter, whoever is likely to plan or participate in this matter. Your Majesty can no longer condone it."

"My son has asked them to investigate, and I believe there will be results soon."

"Treat the symptoms but not the root cause. If you want to cut off these messages, the best way is for Xiao Yan to let him deny the existence of the secret decree."

"Does Queen Mother also believe that Emperor Father wrote this secret decree?" Xiao Xuan asked, his shoulders stiffened slightly, his expression was filled with anticipation and fear.

"Yes, he wrote it. Otherwise, with Xiao Yan's temperament, how could he give up obediently. Your father may be doing it for the stability of Dali, but he is sorry for you, and even more sorry for his responsibility as a father."
