Uncle Nine

Chapter 220 This jade pendant belongs to Ah Yu

It is true that as Zhao Lu thought, Mao Wang Zhao Yu seemed to be an impatient person, and I don't know how he endured and planned to come to this point all these years.A person who is not good at hiding is born to be the final winner. I'm afraid there is something tricky about it.

Prince Rui's mansion was already filled with white silk, obviously he wanted Xia Yu to be buried in peace.

For this matter, Dongfang Yue chose to turn a blind eye and close one eye.For Xia Yu, he himself has no hostility, and even has some good feelings for Xia Yu.What's more, Xia Yu has the grace to save Zhao Yan's life. Although it is not voluntary, it is a fact that one life is exchanged for another.

During the daytime, Zhao Lu claimed that he was sick, and he knew it without thinking about it. He wanted to delay the time and didn't want to face Zhao Shuo's matter directly.

Just procrastinate, now with the appearance of Mao Wang Zhao Yu, Dongfang Yue suddenly felt a little bit reluctant to let Zhao Shuo die.

On that day, Zhao Shuo walked out of Prince Rui's mansion by himself, and was willing to be captured without a fight, it seemed that something - not quite right.This doesn't seem to be Zhao Shuo's style. Whoever Zhao Shuo is, in the eyes of everyone, is a fox. He is not a person who surrenders at will.Xia Yu died, he neither thought about revenge, nor did he really raise an army to make trouble.

This breaking into the palace was a big enough commotion, but Zhao Shuo didn't seem to show his real strength at all, and a large part of it was the forces of the Jianghu, mobs.

Dongfang Yue gasped, narrowed his long and narrow eyes in amazement, and stared coldly at the thick snow outside.The snow is reflective, and the moonlight is clear, what is going on?

Outside, Dongfang Xu hurried over, "Father."

Dongfang Yue quickly withdrew his thoughts, "What's the matter?"

"Xu'er found out something about King Mao Zhao Yu." Dongfang Xu saluted.

"Say!" Dongfang Yue turned around and gave a cold look.

Dongfang Xu said respectfully, "Does foster father know about court Chinese and martial arts, why is he suddenly obeying Mao Wang Zhao Yu so much?"

Dongfang Yue narrowed his dangerous eyes, and gave Dongfang Xu a hard look.

Seeing this, Dongfang Xu immediately bowed his head, "Your lords, whether their only son or beloved son, are all under the drug control of Mao Wang Zhao Yu."

"What medicine?" Dongfang Yue said coldly.

"Mihun San." Dongfang Xu replied respectfully.

As soon as he heard that it was Mihun San, Dongfang Yue understood the general idea in an instant.Mihun powder is naturally powerful, Dongfang Yue sneered, "I never thought that Zhao Yu would use such a despicable method? However, despicable people have their own despicable places, and despicable places are naturally extraordinary It is really great to think of using Mihun Powder to control the son of the court minister."

After a pause, Dongfang Yue suddenly said coldly, "How did they do it? It must not have happened overnight to be able to control so many ministers' sons at the same time. What's more, it is extremely difficult to get something like Mihun San, let alone anyone I am not a fool, I will willingly take poison."

"In the words of my adoptive father, it's the land of fireworks, a brothel named Huamanlou." Dongfang Xu whispered.

Guan Yun kowtowed outside, and Dongfang Xu went out quickly.

After entering the door, Dongfang Xu bowed and said, "Father, Lord Mao just sent someone to say that he wants to invite father to Huamanlou for a reunion." Seeing that Dongfang Yue didn't speak, Dongfang Xu said again, "If father feels uncomfortable That’s right, I’ll push it myself.”

"No need." Dongfang stepped out quickly.

Behind him, Dongfang Xu's eyes were cold and he snorted twice.

Yun Guan frowned, "My lord, what does Prince Mao mean?"

Dongfang Xu took a deep breath, "This means putting people to death." Lord Mao couldn't bear it any longer. After so many years of suffering, so many years of being aggrieved, he planned to play this big game of chess, and now he finally made it through. Naturally, I want to say something to make myself happy.

"Aren't you afraid that the regent will kill him?" Official Yun was surprised.

Dongfang Xu sneered twice, "Since he can find trouble with his adoptive father, he is naturally fully prepared. However, I am not worried about the safety of Prince Mao, but I am worried about whether the palace can stand it. The second The next palace change."

Officer Yun was stunned, "Young master, what you mean is that the regent—"

"Just watch the play." Dongfang Xu smiled coldly and treacherously.

A good show is finally about to be staged.

In front of the building full of flowers, Dongfang Yue got off the carriage.

Looking up at the tall gold-lettered signboard, the words "Humanlou" are eye-catching.The red light is shining brightly, shining on the flowers and plants in front of the building, even in winter, it is still full of spring.

Tonight's Huamanlou looked extraordinarily quiet and empty, as if it was specially set up for Dongfang Yue.

Dongfang Yue stepped into Huamanlou alone, his sharp eyes quickly swept over everything around him, and finally his eyes fell on the high red line net, his eyes narrowed, and their eyes were sharp.

"The Regent's presence is truly a blessing." Zhao Yu stood at the stairs on the second floor, looking at Dongfang Yue standing in the lobby with a smile, "I have been waiting for you for a long time."

Hearing this, Dongfang walked up more unhurriedly, "It must have taken a lot of energy for Prince Mao to make such a show. However, it is still a bit shabby after all, not even a little bit worse than Prince Mao's Mansion."

Zhao Yu smiled, "Naturally, who can compare with the Prince Regent's House. Although the Prince Regent has a different surname, he can also be crowned king with a different surname, which is really gratifying."

While speaking, Dongfang Yue had already walked up the stairs, "When did Prince Mao become so eloquent?"

"The regent is polite, but he is telling the truth! If the regent doesn't like to hear it, let's change the subject." Then he turned and walked towards the room.

In the room as warm as spring, the fragrance is overflowing, and through the gauze curtain, the beautiful and enchanting woman dances gracefully.The sound of the piano rises melodiously, with ups and downs, and the sound is pleasant.On the table, the delicious food and wine can be seen to have been carefully prepared.

After entering the table, Zhao Yu raised his glass, "Come on, I offer a cup to the Regent."

"Why, do you also want to give me Mihun powder?" Dongfang Yue sneered, "Do you know that this thing is just a waste for people with strong inner strength. It will be useless as long as it is forced out of the body You'd better save some medicine and save it to deal with the sons of those ministers."

Zhao Yu smiled and drank the wine in the cup, "The regent is joking, how could this king prescribe medicine to you! The regent is very skilled in martial arts, even if this king has a hundred guts, he would not dare to attack you What's more, today's invitation is really something important to tell, and it is definitely not your enemy."

"Speak up if you have something to say, don't do this." Dongfang Yue drank up the wine in his glass, poured himself a glass of wine, and thought about it for himself.

Zhao Yu smiled, "The regent really speaks quickly. If that's the case, then I don't have to go around the corner." Clapping his hands together, Sun Qi immediately stepped forward, holding an exquisite blue brocade box in his hand.

"The regent will be very interested in this thing." Zhao Yu smiled, and Sun Qi respectfully placed the brocade box in front of Dongfang Yue, then bowed and stepped aside, silently watching the changes.

Dongfang Yue remained expressionless, thought for a while, secretly channeled his inner strength into his palm, and then opened the brocade box.In the end, he was also worried that Zhao Yu would play tricks and play tricks.After all, it is easy to hide the open gun, but it is difficult to guard against the hidden arrow.

The moment the brocade box was opened, Dongfang Yue widened his eyes in astonishment, and stared at the object in front of him coldly.

Isn't this—his jade pendant?Why are you here?
Standing up with a "whoosh", Dongfang Yue held the jade pendant coldly, and in the dim light, he saw the jade catkins of half a dragon.My heart suddenly skipped a beat, this piece is true.

Unique, really.

"How dare you steal things from the palace. What exactly are you trying to do? Dare to touch the princess, are you afraid of death?" Dongfang Yue gritted his teeth coldly, Zhao Yan's body recovered most of it with difficulty, but she couldn't stand the toss.If the residual poison recurs, I'm afraid the Daluo Immortal will also be unable to recover.

"It seems that the Prince Regent really cares about the princess." Zhao Yu sighed softly, "It's a pity that this item does not belong to the princess. Has the Prince Regent never seen the princess's jade pendant? Or is it the Empress Dowager Bao Yao?" I have kept it from you for so long that the regent himself can't tell, is that your seed?"

With a "bang", the cup in Dongfang Yue's hand was crushed on the spot.

Zhao Yu's face tightened, and then he suppressed the smile on his lips, and continued, "Don't tell me the regent really doesn't want to know who the real owner of this jade pendant is? However, it must not be Princess Zhao Yan."

"What exactly do you want to say?" Dongfang Yue almost gnashed his teeth. At that moment, he only wanted to kill these people who spread rumors.

"Bring people up." Zhao Yu glanced at Sun Qi, and Sun Qi nodded and left.Zhao Yu said, "There are some things that my king doesn't care about, let the person concerned say it! They will tell you what is the truth."

Dongfang Yue sat back with a murderous look, he wanted to see what kind of tricks Zhao Yu was playing.

When Sun Qi came back, he was accompanied by an old woman with her head down, unable to see her face clearly.In fact, Dongfang Yue really didn't know this woman, but Zhao Yu was able to bring her here, and it must not be random.

"Women see the prince." The woman knelt in front of the table, not daring to raise her head, her body trembling uncontrollably.

Zhao Yu said, "Tell me yourself! How did this jade pendant come about?"

"The housewife is from Huamanlou in Daizhou—Mom, it's—" She looked up, she was the old bustard of Huamanlou in Daizhou, A Miao Niang.No one expected that Huamanlou was on fire, and although there were all the dead bodies in it, there were also people who were indiscriminate.

Among them, there is A Miao Niang who escaped from birth.

Xia Yu's aunt!
A Miao Niang didn't dare to say anything, she looked up and saw Dongfang Yue's face was dark, her eyes were terrified, she was already trembling with fright, "This jade pendant belonged to Ah Yu, I was picking it up in front of Huamanlou When she came to her, there was such a thing on her body. The woman saw that the jade pendant was broken artificially, thinking that if someone looks for it in the future, if it is a child of a rich family, it can, can - can For a good price, it was not sold to Dian, and it was hung around Ah Yu's neck."

"Ayu?" Dongfang Yue clenched his fists in his sleeves and slapped the table with his palm. The table was instantly torn apart, and with a roar, he was extremely angry, "It's just nonsense! What Ayu! If you dare to talk nonsense, I will I want you to be quartered."

A Miao Niang was so frightened that she burst into tears and kowtowed three times to Dongfang Yuelian, "The women dare not speak. This thing belongs to Ah Yu. She has hung it around her neck for more than ten years. The wife really did not admit her mistake. When she was a child, she was naughty, climbing a tree to dig out bird eggs, and accidentally knocked off a corner. That time, Ah Yu cried, saying that she was afraid that it would be broken in the future, and she would not be able to find herself. parents."

Dongfang Yue trembled slightly, and stared fiercely at the woman who claimed to be a procuress in a brothel.

"Why do the regent get angry? Why don't you ask, who is Ah Yu!" Zhao Yu took a sip of wine and waved his hand very comfortably. In Zhao Yu's arms, there was a sweet smile.

The more Dongfang raised his steps, he walked away, but after taking two steps, he stopped and looked back at Zhao Yu, who was coldly looking at the woman in his arms.

Zhao Yu pinched the woman's sharp chin, kissed the woman's vermilion lips with great interest, and then casually glanced at A Miao Niang, "Since the regent doesn't want to listen, then you don't have to say it. Get out!" He laughed twice, the laughter was so sharp, "Since the regent doesn't want to know anything, then I don't need to do anything unnecessary."

"Zhao Yu!" The feet moved suddenly, Dongfang Yue's speed was too fast, even Sun Qi who was beside him couldn't see clearly, when Dongfang Yue had already approached Zhao Yu.The three fingers pinched Zhao Yu's throat fiercely, and blood slowly overflowed from the fingertips. As long as Dongfang Yue used a little more, Zhao Yu's life would come to an end here.

"My lord!" Sun Qi drew his sword, "Let go of your lord!"

It is definitely not a good thing to anger Dongfang Yue, let alone this matter.As far as Dongfang Yue is concerned, he has nothing to hold in other people's hands in his life, but this lifeblood is the minefield he can't touch the least.He has been a courtier for so many years, and after the palace change, he is just a king with a different surname, why?Others don't know, but Empress Dowager Bo Yao knows it well.

For Zhao Yan's life, he succumbed to others and endured everything.

Now, Zhao Yu told him that everything he did was just a conspiracy, and that he himself was just a fool being used by others. What's more, he was very likely to do a wrong thing that even he himself could not accept .

If these come true, he doesn't know what else he can do?
Even if there is great power, there is no power to return to heaven.

Sun Qi gave A Miao Niang a cold look. A Miao Niang had already been frightened out of her wits by the sudden scene, her lips were trembling violently, but she finally uttered a few words, "A Yu is Xia, Xia Yu!"

The word Xia Yu was almost like a bolt from the blue, Dongfang Yue's eyes were as scarlet as blood, and he roared, "Say it again!"

"She, she, she followed Master Liang's son, Liang Yiru, to the capital, heard, heard, later entered, entered Prince Rui's mansion, and became the servant of Prince Rui! Ah Yu, Ah Yu, right? What's wrong with you?" A Miao Niang suddenly woke up and turned around, kowtowed, and begged in tears, "A Yu is still young, if this girl offends you guys, please let her go! Poor Yu, she hasn't had a good life since she was a child, I beg you to be merciful and let her go! I beg you!"

"Xia Yu is dead." Sun Qi said coldly.

At that moment, A Miao Niang's body froze, she stopped on the spot, and suddenly she slumped and sat on the ground, "Dead, dead? Dead?" She didn't believe it, "No, that girl was so fateful that she fell into a cliff hole. How could she die if she wasn't dead? Why would she die?"

"Then I have to ask, the Prince Regent." Sun Qi raised his eyes to look at Dongfang Yue whose complexion darkened in an instant, "If the Prince Regent doesn't believe it and thinks there's something wrong with it, he can go to the palace and ask the Empress Dowager. His daughter should be recognized. If it doesn’t work, go see the princess’s jade pendant and see what the princess says. The regent may have been deceived by killing his parents and children. The deception lasted for 16 years. Oh yes, I heard that Xia Yu is also exactly 16 years old, which is about the same age as the princess."

Dongfang Yue withdrew his hand, and Zhao Yu fell to the ground all of a sudden, almost fainting.

Sun Qi continued, "The regent will never forget that Jia Dahai was found in Daizhou. Since Jia Dahai appeared in Daizhou, there must be convincing explanations for some things that happened back then. Princess It is somewhat similar to the empress dowager, but the regent should not forget that sometimes there are some similarities between cousins. Especially between aunts and nephews—"

Before the words fell, Dongfang Yue had already left quickly.

Some things don't need to be said anymore.

"My lord?" Sun Qi hurriedly walked towards the dying Zhao Yu, but luckily he was still alive, but just passed by.Fortunately, Dongfang Yue didn't do anything cruel, otherwise Zhao Yu would surely die.Want to come to Dongfang Yue, I believe it.Otherwise, with Dongfang Yue's cruelty, he would never show mercy.

This night is destined to be a sleepless night.

As if she had a premonition, the Empress Dowager Bao Yao was always worried.In fact, from the moment Xia Yu died, she couldn't eat and couldn't sleep at night.Perhaps it was retribution, or guilt.

It was herself who gave her daughter a ride.

My own daughter!
To this day, she doesn't know how she can do it.

But the truth is, she really did.

Xia Yu is really dead.

The snow in the yard had already started to melt after a day, becoming stiff and hard, and gradually condensed into ice, glowing pale and pale under the moonlight.The Empress Dowager Bao Yao stood in the yard, looked up at the cold moon, and sighed softly, "The current situation is really becoming more and more unfavorable. Whenever there is any wind and grass, the Great Yanjiang Mountain is on the verge of collapse."

Fang Ying carefully put on the big cloak for Empress Dowager Bao Yao, "Mother Empress, please rest. You haven't slept well for the past two days. If you continue like this, you will be unable to bear it. The Great Yan Dynasty needs Empress Dowager, and the emperor also needs Empress Dowager." Empress, you can't be so disrespectful to your body!"

With a long sigh, the Empress Dowager Bao Yao gave a wry smile, "What is the body, if it can be exchanged, the world will be peaceful, all evils and sycophants will be eradicated, and the Ai family will die without complaint."

"The Empress Dowager is a thousand years old." Fang Ying smiled, "Go back!"

Empress Dowager Bao Yao nodded, and was about to turn around and walk towards the bedroom when she heard hurried footsteps coming from behind.As soon as he turned around, it was the eunuch Wu En who came running quickly.Xuedi had something to say, and he ran in a panic, "The Empress Dowager is not good, not good."

Fang Ying glared at him, "You're talking nonsense, the empress dowager is very well, why is it not well? Slap your mouth!"

Wu En sighed, slapped himself, and then said, "Empress Dowager, the princess is here."

"Why did the princess come back so late?" Fang Ying frowned, thought for a while and said, "Come when the princess is here, why is it not good? You are getting more and more confused, and you can't hurry up—"

"Hey, it's not just the princess, even the regent entered the palace late at night and accompanied the princess to Ci'an Palace." Wu En stomped his feet anxiously.

Hearing this, Fang Ying glanced at Empress Dowager Bao Yao in astonishment.

Dongfang Yuelou entered the palace at night, fearing that something important and urgent might happen.I came here with the princess, and I didn't know what to do.The original Queen Mother Bo Yao didn't want to see Dongfang Yue, Fang Ying naturally knew it well.It's still in the middle of the night to enter the palace, this - I'm afraid it's not a good thing to come.

"Empress Dowager, look at this—" Fang Ying was a little panicked.

Empress Dowager Bao Yao looked at the gate of the palace with cold eyebrows, "If you come here, you will be safe, now there is no proof of death, what else can he do!"

"Let's get ready!" Fang Ying said.

Empress Dowager Bao Yao nodded, and glanced at Wu En, "Go down! If there is an emergency, you should know what to do."

"Yes!" Wu En stepped back quickly.

The moonlight was cold, and the silver light poured on the Empress Dowager Bao Yao, and she suddenly remembered the youth and youth at that time.At that time, she liked snow so much, but now, when she looks at this vast expanse, she only feels cold, piercingly cold.

After a while, Dongfang Yue and Zhao Yan stepped into the gate of Ci'an Palace.

Today's Dongfang Yue has regained the title of regent, and is no longer restricted by the palace gate, and can freely enter and exit the palace.Not to mention his body, no one is afraid of him messing up the harem.

Finally, he walked up to her, and with just one glance, his eyes were ruthless and bloody.
