The Princess of the Fairy Phoenix Road

Chapter 967 A King Is Not Like a King, A Minister Is Not a Minister (4)
"I hope so!" The queen mother felt a little relieved after hearing this, paused for a while, and suddenly thought of something, then looked at Emperor Chongming seriously and said, "About the matter of the crown prince—the emperor, what do you think?" Your Majesty, you are prudent and calm, don't worry about this mourner, but if the new king breaks out with those two father and son in the future, there will be endless troubles. Xiao Liu is useless, and Lao Si is not a peace of mind. Yes, where is Lian Sheng—his temper—ah—”

The Empress Dowager sighed again as she spoke.

When it came to the matter of the crown prince, Emperor Chongming was also at a loss. After a moment of silence, he held the Queen Mother's hand and said, "This matter is not a matter of one day. Go back and rest, don't think about it, I—— I have my own calculations in my heart."

Regarding the issue of the crown prince, the Nanhua court has always been quite controversial.

Originally, Feng Liancheng was the eldest son, and his rank was long, so it was logical to be established as the heir apparent, but something happened to his mother's family, and he was willing to be manipulated by Empress Chen for so many years, and all the old officials couldn't see it.

Coupled with the fact that the fourth and sixth princes were not at ease, and they formed cliques, it was actually a mess.

The Empress Dowager also knew that it would be useless to talk about such a situation, so she calmed down and told Emperor Chongming to rest well before going back to her bedroom.

In the side hall.

Empress Chen, Feng Liancheng and others were all recruited, and they were brought directly to Emperor Chongming. Physician Chang took the medical boy to run around all night, and adjusted the decoction, and finally resolved the drugs in several people's bodies in advance.

Because it was the emperor's bedroom, they couldn't stay for a long time. They barely managed to stand up, so they hurried over to ask the emperor to resign, but they were stopped by the emperor's order.

After a whole night of tossing and tossing, several people were also exhausted, they didn't insist, they all resigned and parted ways outside the emperor's palace.

Feng Gan returned to his palace first.

As Empress Chen's adopted son, Feng Liansheng would personally escort her back to the palace to fulfill his filial piety.

When the two went to Fengming Palace, Empress Chen's confidant mother and mother came to report the news, and she replied one by one about Emperor Chongming's treatment of Fengxu's mother and son.

Empress Chen still hadn't regained her composure, she was leaning on the couch sickly, but her eyes sharpened when she heard the words, she threw the tea bowl back on the table with a bang, and said angrily: "That evil bastard is plotting to usurp the throne!" , almost took the emperor's life, and the emperor dealt with it so lightly?"

"Yes!" the nanny replied: "Your Majesty's imperial decree has been sent to the mansion of the sixth prince, but even though he is spared, he is useless, and it is impossible for him to stand up again in the future. There is also Concubine Shu, who was poisoned by the Queen Mother. Giving death with wine, and secretly ordered someone to throw the body into the fire in her bedroom, destroying the body and destroying all traces, it can be regarded as a sigh of relief for the empress and His Royal Highness."

"At this time, why do you want to vent your anger?" Although Empress Chen felt relieved in her heart, she gave her an angry look on her face, "It's just a slut, it doesn't matter if she dies or not, but Fengxu Well, that's a good thing after all."

No matter how fierce the fight between the women in the harem was, in the end——

It was only for the dragon chair.

It would be really stupid to put all your eyes on the little thing about women's competition for favor.

Empress Chen's mood improved a little, and she picked up the tea bowl and sipped tea slowly.

Feng Liancheng was beside him, and raised his hand inadvertently, only to see Li Wei outside in the yard gesturing to him vaguely, it seemed that he had something important to report.

He saw it in his eyes, but he didn't move at all, he just calmly comforted Empress Chen with a few words, and when Empress Chen finally calmed down and sent him away, he calmly got up and said goodbye.

"Your Highness!" Li Wei came up to meet him, Feng Liancheng glanced back, hurriedly pressed his wrist calmly, and led him away.

When the two of them left the gate of Fengming Palace, they happened to meet another confidant nanny who was beside Empress Chen rushing over.

Feng Liancheng was fine, and took Li Wei away directly. It was not until he left the palace that Li Wei reported the news that Chu Xunyang and Lord Yanling had left Beijing overnight.

"Your Highness, they left in a hurry, and our news hasn't arrived yet, but it seems that something serious happened to Xiyue." Li Wei said.

"Then just wait for the news first." Feng Liancheng said, the corners of his lips curled playfully, thinking——

Empress Chen's people should have gone there just now for this reason!

Chu Xunyang and his party left Beijing in a hurry and returned to Xiyue day and night.

The news given by Xiyue was that Chu Qifeng was stabbed and injured. Although it was not fatal, Chu Xunyang was also extremely worried, and rushed back to Xiyue without stopping. He didn't expect that he had just passed Chuzhou City, but he was in the teahouse outside the city. Meet an acquaintance.

It was none other than Su Yi and Mo Xue, master and servant.

"Junyu, princess!" Su Yi seemed to be waiting here on purpose, and seeing the two finally appear, he hurriedly put down the teacup and stood up to greet her.

A trace of confusion flashed across Chu Xunyang's eyes, and he glanced sideways at Lord Yanling.

Lord Yanling shrugged, obviously——

Su Yi was not found by him.

"Why is Mr. Qingshui here?" Chu Xunyang was even more confused, and stepped forward to ask.

After Shi Rong's accident, Su Yi left with his seal and resigned from his post in Beijing. Chu Xunyang has been busy recently, and it seems like he hasn't heard any news about him for a while.

Su Yi's appearance here by such a coincidence is definitely not a coincidence.

"Are you waiting for us here on purpose?" Mr. Yanling was obviously quite surprised, followed by a turn of his thoughts, and then calmed down and said, "It's Chu Qifeng——"

When Chu Xunyang heard the words, he couldn't help being in a state of confusion. He hurriedly took another step forward, and said anxiously: "But something happened in Beijing again? It's my brother—"

At this moment, Su Yi was stunned, his eyes wandered around the two of them in confusion, but when he saw Qingluo's eyes dodging, he had an epiphany in his heart, and said: "The prince is all right, it's—"

He paused while talking, probably because he was afraid that Chu Qifeng would give Qingluo some advice in private, so he didn't say any more.

Chu Xunyang followed his gaze and looked sideways at Qingluo.

"Princess, before in Dayun City, my slaves were afraid that you would be in a hurry, so they didn't dare to tell the truth. In fact—it wasn't His Highness the Crown Prince who was assassinated!" Qing Luo gritted her teeth, feeling extremely embarrassed, and hesitated to speak.

Seeing her like this, Chu Xunyang couldn't help but feel more suspicious. He raised his eyebrows and said, "What happened? Since it wasn't my brother who was assassinated, why did you say—"

If it wasn't for Chu Qifeng's business, could there be something more serious and urgent than this?
"Yes—" Qing Luo still hesitated, avoiding her all the time, and even didn't dare to look her in the eye, hesitated for a long time, then gritted her teeth, and said anxiously, "It's Your Majesty!"
