The Princess of the Fairy Phoenix Road

Chapter 1265 Overturning old accounts, confrontation before the imperial court (2)
"Empress!" Chu Xunyang's face turned cold when he heard the words, and he said sharply: "As the mother of a country and the head of the harem, you don't even have such a little tolerance? No matter the birth mother of the Second Highness is Who, he is the son of His Majesty the Emperor, but you, as her aunt, are insulting her so blatantly?"

Empress Chen regarded all the other sons of Emperor Chongming except Feng Liancheng as thorns in her eyes, and now she hated Feng Qi deeply, the word "evil species" was almost at her fingertips, and she blurted it out.

It was just a momentary slip of the tongue, but he didn't expect that Chu Xunyang would avoid the serious and take the light at this juncture, and come to catch her fault.

"I——Bengong is only in a fit of rage to make a slip of the tongue!" Empress Chen subconsciously wanted to get angry, but after seeing Emperor Chongming's face, she had to temporarily suppress her temper, and changed the subject: " You don't need to talk about your official career to confuse the public, you should confess the truth quickly!"

"Is it just a slip of the tongue? I thought it was the empress, you are not going to be good-mouthed anymore!" Chu Xunyang snorted coldly, and the ridiculed Empress Chen's face was ashen, and then she just wanted to solve the matter quickly, so she said Directly confronted Emperor Chongming after the case: "Your Majesty, what the Empress said is not wrong. Indeed, it is not a coincidence that the people of Yongding Hou Mansion were killed in the suburbs. On the day when the incident happened, the Second Highness and we had indeed seen those people. , not only saw it, but also asked the accompanying guards to kill them!"

Empress Chen didn't expect that she would recognize it so readily, she immediately determined that Feng Qi was plotting against the chest of Yongding Hou Manmen, she was shocked, she staggered and took two steps back.

"Your Majesty, be careful!" Nanny Chang quickly helped her up.

"It really is you!" Empress Chen stared at Feng Qi, squeezed each word out from between her teeth, then threw off Nanny Chang's hand, rushed over, and raised her hand towards Feng Qi. Slap on the face.

With her status, it was hard for Feng Qi to hide from this slap.

Chu Xunyang stretched out his hand without even thinking about it, and directly pushed Aunt Chang who was next to him forward.

With a crisp slap, Empress Chen's hostile slap slapped Nanny Chang firmly on the face.

"Ouch!" Nanny Chang let out a scream like a slaughtered pig, her eyes staring, then she remembered that she was in the Imperial Study Room, she hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, "Your Majesty, forgive me! Your Majesty, forgive me!"

Empress Chen slapped her wrongly, she was stunned, and said bitterly: "Chu Xunyang—"

"Empress Empress, Your Majesty is still sitting in this palace, and you just want to do something to his son so casually? Is this—is it really appropriate?" Chu Xunyang smiled fearlessly and coldly.

Empress Chen shuddered suddenly, she turned her head, and she saw Emperor Chongming staring at her sullenly, the corners of his lips were tense, which already showed his extreme displeasure at this time.

"Emperor—Emperor—" Empress Chen panicked all of a sudden, clutched her wrist, and stammered: "The concubine is in a fit of anger, I can't be more angry, Feng Qi is too much—"

"The Empress didn't wait for me to finish speaking, how did she know that the Second Highness had gone too far?" Chu Xunyang cut off her words in a cold voice.

Empress Chen's chest heaved in anger.

Feng Qi was suppressed by her identity, and it was inconvenient to say a lot, but this Chu Xunyang was fearless and had no scruples at all.

Emperor Chongming didn't want to see them continue to quarrel, and said in a cold voice: "Princess Dingguo, what exactly are you hiding, let me tell you clearly in front of me!"

"Yes!" Chu Xunyang still wanted to give him his face, and immediately nodded respectfully, and then said seriously: "That day I returned to Beijing with Junyu and His Royal Highness, and I did meet the Yongding Houfu. and ordered his subordinates to kill them to silence them, but the queen's guess was only half right, because in this matter, although the Second Highness lied, in fact it was not our husband and wife who were helping him to hide something, on the contrary , I was the one who asked him to keep his mouth shut and hide that matter for me!"

"What did you say?" Empress Chen was at a loss, bewildered.

"Empress, don't you understand? Because in fact, the person sent by the Yongding Hou Mansion that day was actually going to assassinate me, not the Second Highness who temporarily decided to go with us!" Chu Xunyang said, sarcasm He hooked the corners of his lips.

Empress Chen buzzed in her head.

It was only at this time that Emperor Chongming solved the doubt that was lingering in his heart——

At that time, when he heard that someone had assassinated Feng Qi, he always felt that there was something wrong with that matter, and only then did he wake up like a dream——

Indeed, that day Feng Qi decided to return to Beijing on the spur of the moment. From the time he went to ask for orders in front of himself to the time of departure, there was no delay at all. Could it be said that someone planned to assassinate him?How could it be possible to come here?
"Are they going after you?" Emperor Chongming thought slowly and said.

"Yes!" Chu Xunyang nodded, with a frank expression on his face, "Those people wanted to assassinate me and Junyu. I couldn't get angry at all, so I asked the guards to kill them all, but I wanted someone to send their bodies to His Majesty. When looking over, the guards on the body of His Royal Highness recognized their identities. His Royal Highness said that Yongding Hou is the father of the Empress Empress. He is loyal to the emperor and patriotic. He would never do such a thing. Your Majesty broke the relationship between His Majesty and the Marquis of Yongding, and the Second Highness asked me for favors, saying that he would settle the matter, and let me be calm and wait for his explanation, so I also gave it to him. This face. But you also know, Your Majesty, that I have a bad temper, and it is even more impossible for me to swallow this breath for no reason, so I made a condition at that time. Before the truth of what happened, I won't allow him to leak the news!"

Chu Xunyang's perverted behavior was obvious to all. If someone really dared to assassinate her, she would suppress the news and wait for herself to find out the murderer. This is not surprising at all.

Suddenly, Empress Chen shivered suddenly, rushed forward and said, "You are talking nonsense! You said my father wanted to assassinate you? Why did he do that?"

She knew about this matter, but thought that with the current situation, Chu Xunyang would never have a chance to mention it.

"Why did you come to ask me about what your father did?" Chu Xunyang raised his eyebrows and asked in a cold voice. Before Empress Chen could react, his eyes turned cold again, and he said with a sarcasm: "Of course, even if you want to ask him now, he won't have a chance to speak!"

Empress Chen was in grief and indignation for the tragedy of killing the family in the Yongding Hou's mansion, and Chu Xunyang stabbed the knife in the wound like this, which almost made her angry.

She clutched her chest, gasping for breath.

Emperor Chongming looked at Feng Qi and Chu Xunyang calmly, obviously he also had doubts about the relationship between them, and after a while he asked, "Is this really the case?"

He asked, of course, Feng Qi.

"Yes!" Feng Qi replied without changing his face, "At that time, because I didn't believe that Yongdinghou would do such a treasonous thing, after thinking about it, I found another person to lie about being an assassin, and left a mother-in-law on them. The token in the harem, I thought in my heart, use this thing as a test, after all, it is about my mother, if there are any grievances and secrets in the Marquis of Yongding, he will definitely take the initiative to report to the father, but he never thought—"

Because Emperor Chongming didn't wantonly pursue it, Yongding Hou was secretly delighted, so he just pretended it was completely gone!
Someone in their Yongdinghou's mansion was missing, he didn't go to the yamen to report the case, knowing that his family might be involved in the treasonous assassination of the prince, he didn't say a word, what else could it be if it wasn't a guilty conscience?
"No! Absolutely not like this!" Empress Chen panicked and wanted to defend herself, but she couldn't justify herself.

this matter--

It is indeed too obvious what their family did.

Finally regaining her composure, she knelt down in front of Emperor Chongming with tears in her eyes and said, "Your Majesty, Princess Dingguo is just talking nonsense. The concubine's father has no grievances or enmities with her, so how could he dare to assassinate her at the mercy of the world? She is clearly trying to commit a crime!"

"Yes, I am also puzzled!" Before Emperor Chongming could speak, Chu Xunyang had already interjected, but her tone was not serious at all, but with a bit of naughtiness on the contrary, she said with a smile: "And he Even if I don't like the palace and want to send people to assassinate, how can all the assassins carry weapons and objects that can prove that they are from the Yongding Marquis Mansion? Even the empress's token is also brought along? It’s not going to be painstaking and solitary, to blame the empress, your own daughter, right?”

Empress Chen began to sweat coldly on her forehead.

A shrewd person like Emperor Chongming must be able to grasp the essence of it immediately——

With such obvious evidence, it is definitely not for the purpose of framing the empress. It is too late. In connection with the situation at that time, the purpose of the assassination of the Yongding Houfu is clear——

It's clearly the misfortune that caused it!

Emperor Chongming kept a cold face and did not speak.

Feng Liancheng couldn't just sit idly by, and said with a lack of confidence: "Father, there must be some misunderstanding in this matter, the Marquis of Yongding is a man, and I can still trust you—"

Empress Chen gouged him out with resentment——

This is also a white-eyed wolf acting in front of people.

"His Royal Highness has a deep affection for the Marquis of Yongding!" Chu Xunyang said, interrupting him, "However, Your Majesty, although the Marquis of Yongding was unable to clarify the matter, after investigation, Xunyang discovered another deep Those who know the whole story..."

"You mean—" Feng Liancheng had an epiphany immediately.

"Yes!" Chu Xunyang nodded with a smile, "It's His Royal Highness's ex-fiancee, Hua Siyue, the second lady of Prime Minister Hua's family. If His Majesty does not object, you can send her into the palace for questioning, of course—"

As Chu Xunyang said, he showed an unfathomable smile, paused, and said, "The premise is that she hasn't been silenced yet!"

Since it is Fengyi's layout, there are nine out of ten chances that Hua Siyue will be silenced at this time.

Emperor Chongming thought for a while, then nodded.

It is true that neither Chu Xunyang nor Feng Qi had any hope that Wenchang could find Hua Siyue, so when Hua Siyue was pushed in, both of them couldn't help but change color.
