The Princess of the Fairy Phoenix Road

Chapter 813
The two maids also secretly smacked their tongues at her sudden change, but they will only be alive when the master cheers up.

"Something happened. During this period of time, the capital has been surrounded by the Huwei camp. The emperor only said that he wanted to capture the assassin, and in the name of protection, he sent the Imperial Forest Army twice to surround the East Palace." Qingge said, holding Chen Si The news that came back poured out like a few treasures, "Chen Si said that this matter looked very strange, but the palace and the East Palace were tightly covered, and there were no specific signs. And - just in the first two days Today, the battle in northern Xinjiang is in a hurry again, and His Royal Highness has already rushed over by order."

The two girls can't comprehend much about the important affairs of the court.

"Huh?" Chu Xinrui was taken aback when she heard the words, and blurted out in disbelief: "You mean the prince is not in the capital now?"

"Yeah!" Qingge said with emotion: "Your Majesty passed away again at this moment. Judging from the itinerary, His Royal Highness may not have arrived in Northern Xinjiang yet. If this happened, he should have taken care of it." I can’t go there anymore, I have to rush back to preside over the emperor’s funeral!”

Chu Yi'an isn't in the capital?
At this juncture, Chu Yi'an is not in the capital?

When Chu Xinrui heard the news, her heart suddenly filled with ecstasy——

This opportunity is simply a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Her eyes were scorching, and the light and shadow inside flickered, so bright that it was almost dazzling, but she tried her best to suppress her breathing, and she didn't allow herself to fully express her emotions at this time.

The two maids didn't notice this, and while arranging her clothes, Huan Ge added: "There is another thing that is also very strange. A few days ago, the emperor sent an oral order, saying that the concubine De is recovering from her injuries, and she is depressed. I went to the East Palace and invited Princess Xunyang to accompany me in the palace."

"Between Concubine De and Chu Xunyang? When did the two of them have such a friendship?" Chu Xinrui paused while arranging her temple hair, and looked over suspiciously.

The two girls looked at each other and shook their heads.

At this moment, there was a rush of footsteps outside the courtyard, but Chen Si called out in a deep voice: "Princess, is it convenient for you now? The subordinates have something to report!"

Chen Si is the confidant cultivated by Chu Yijian, the most trustworthy and capable.

Chu Xinrui's gaze narrowed slightly, and she quickly tidied up her clothes.

Huan Ge responded and went to open the door.

Chu Xinrui picked a chair and sat down. Outside, Chen Si had strode in. He knelt down on the ground and said, "Princess, the latest news I just received is that the emperor is in the imperial study and bedroom during the day. I was assassinated twice, it is said that I was injured by the assassin, and in the end, the old disease relapsed, so I died!"

"Assassin?" Chu Xinrui frowned, obviously still very surprised, "How could it be? Who did it?"

Chu Yijian held a grudge against the emperor and took the risk of assassinating, there was a reason for that.

Chu Xinrui really couldn't figure out who else would take such a big risk to assassinate the emperor like their brothers and sisters, and even twice in one day——

This is clearly the unwillingness to let things go if nothing is accomplished.

"The subordinates have inquired on purpose." Chen Sidao looked at her coldly from the corner of his eye, and then continued: "It is said that there are remnants of the previous dynasty haunting, and in the evening, the prince of Nanhe has passed on A secret order was sent to each yamen to put them under martial law throughout the city and search for assassins."

"Front court?" Chu Xinrui's brows became pimples all of a sudden.

"Yes!" Chen Sidao: "The news has been confirmed and proved to be true!"

No matter how clear and calm Chu Xinrui was, she couldn't react for a while.

Chen Si didn't say much anymore, the room was silent for a while, seeing the sky outside, Chu Xinrui temporarily suppressed the matter, straightened her skirt and stood up and said: "I'll talk about these things later, go and see Let's see if the concubine is ready, let's go to the palace for the funeral!"

"Yes!" Chen Si agreed, and then got up and left quickly.

Chu Xinrui tidied up again, and then took the two maids to the front yard. Princess Rui was already waiting there when she passed.

Princess Rui is a casual person, she was nervous and cramped at first, when she saw her coming, she hastily took two steps to greet her, grabbed her hand and said: "Rui Rui, the imperial edict issued by the emperor will separate you, my mother and daughter. Foot ground, we just leave the house rashly like this - is this really okay?"

"So what if the feet are grounded?" Chu Xinrui said, but she didn't take it seriously, "Who made him not directly issue an edict to demote you and me to common people? As long as you are the mother and concubine, you still have the title of Princess Rui for a day, and as long as you Another day, I will be the Princess Changning appointed by him personally, and we will still be relatives of the emperor. If the emperor dies, if we don't go to the palace to cry, it will be disrespectful, and we will be blamed by others."

Although the words she said were just excuses, Princess Rui firmly believed in them, she managed to gather her composure and could only nod stiffly.

Now the entire Prince Rui's Mansion is under the control of the Imperial Forest Army.

Chu Xinrui was calm and composed, so she asked to leave the house openly on the grounds that she was going to mourn me.

The emperor passed away suddenly, the crown prince was not in the capital, and the imperial army lost their backbone. After hesitating, because what she said was reasonable, they didn't dare to obstruct her too much, so they had to go to the palace to report the letter first.

It was an unfortunate coincidence that the soldier who went back to report the letter had just arrived at the gate of the palace, and he happened to meet Li Lin who was about to leave the palace to handle errands.

Li Lin then reported the matter to Chu Qiyan.

At that time, Chu Qiyan was also suffering from the emperor's death, so she frowned unconsciously and said, "Chu Xinrui?"

"Yes!" Li Lin said, with a slightly dignified look on his face, "It is said that Princess Rui and Princess Changning heard the death knell ringing in the palace, and they have already made preparations, and they want to enter the palace to see off His Majesty."

At this time, the people in Prince Rui's Mansion shouldn't be hiding far away, wishing everyone would forget about their mother and daughter, right?
But Chu Xinrui went the other way, asking to enter the palace to cry?

Chu Qiyan's expression was indifferent, and he rubbed a piece of suet jade on his waist playfully, and only after a while did he sneer and said: "This woman is still unwilling to settle down!"

"Then what should we do now? Are they allowed to enter the palace?" Li Lin said.

"Let them come if they want to come, anyway, they are not targeting me." Chu Qiyan said, and hurriedly left with her sleeves, and continued to run for the emperor's funeral.

Chu Xinrui still doesn't give up, she still wants to stand up again with the idea of ​​fighting back from the jedi!
Chu Qiyan was also displeased with this cruel woman, but anyway, it wasn't his bad luck that the other party was looking for, so he didn't bother to pay attention to it.

Chu Xinrui was waiting for the news at Prince Rui's Mansion, and she was very nervous at first.

Because even if Chu Yi'an was not in the capital, relying on Chu Qifeng's protection of Chu Xunyang would definitely not make her feel better.
