Chapter 567 Careful Arrangement (2)
Chu Yunzhou was the first to rush into the cell, passed Yuwen Xianqing's head and looked, her pale face was scarier than a dead person, if she hadn't found her still breathing, he might have thought she was dead.There were various blood marks under the tattered clothes on his body, as if his skin had been pierced by something sharp.The blood on her body was still red, and Chu Yunzhou had some common sense, so it could be seen that she was not poisoned.It's just that he was bitten all over his body with cuts and bruises, and the injury was very serious.

Seeing this scene, he was restless, not worried about whether she would die, but he had a very strong intuition that the queen was attacked by snakes, it was definitely not accidental!
Of course, he would never say these conjectures. All he can do is to watch the development of this matter with the ministers.

Soon, several imperial doctors arrived, with palace servants behind them.

All the ministers found an excuse and retreated outside the prison.

"What the hell is going on? I have been an official in the court for many years, and I have never seen such a strange thing." A minister sighed in bewilderment.

"Yeah, it's so terrifying, it's really unheard of." A minister echoed.

"I don't know where those snakes came from? Why did they bite the empress instead of others?" Another minister couldn't help asking doubts.

"That's right, the lower officials are also very puzzled. The emperor just issued an edict to pass on to the crown prince. How long has it taken for the empress to encounter such a calamity? My lords, what do you think?" A certain minister asked meaningfully.

His question made the people who were talking a lot quiet down by coincidence.No one would have thought about such a bizarre and frightening thing happening.As soon as the emperor said that he wanted to abdicate, something happened to the queen. From their point of view, ordinary people would definitely not be able to let a group of snakes haunt them. In other words, the ancestors of the royal family disagreed with the emperor's abdication.

Is there any other explanation for such an accident?
"The prince has arrived—" Behind the crowd, there was a sudden announcement.

All the ministers looked together, and before they had time to salute, they saw that the prince's people had rushed into the prison.

Originally, they still had a lot of doubts and wanted to talk about it, but now it is difficult to open their mouths.Regardless of whether it is the heavens who do not agree with the crown prince's enthronement or the ancestors of the royal family who oppose the crown prince's enthronement, the emperor's edict has been issued, which is a fact.Unless the edict is withdrawn by the emperor himself, the crown prince will soon become the new emperor of Dayan Kingdom.

Among the crowd, Chu Yunzhou was the most silent.Coming out of the prison, he didn't say a word, just listened to the discussions of the ministers.No one knows how much he wants to leave at this moment.He really shouldn't have come here out of curiosity, if he left earlier, he could go back earlier and tell Liang'er.

The capital city is about to change!

No, to be precise, the Chu family is in trouble!

The queen was injured, which is no small matter.Others may think that this is the punishment of the gods, but in his view, it is more like a deliberate injury.Even if he agrees with the saying that the gods are in trouble, will the prince believe it?
He won't believe it!

The prince already hated the Chu family to the bone.Especially after the virtuous king was valued, the crown prince would be even more intolerable towards the virtuous king and the members of their Chu family...

The last time the fifth princess was injured, Liang'er went to the palace to explain it. Although Liang'er deliberately avoided talking about it, he still heard some rumors that the fifth princess wanted to blame Liang'er for being bitten by a snake.Now the queen was also bitten by a snake. This... not only was it shocking, but he couldn't help but link the two things together.

He can think so, what about the prince?

These people think that they have figured out their mistakes, and they want to take the opportunity to attack them. Now that the queen is bitten by a group of snakes and looks like that, can this matter be reduced?If the emperor is sober, it may be possible for the big and small things to be reduced, but it is a pity that the emperor is now...

Ugh!
Where did the snakes come from?Who is making trouble at this juncture?
Really anxious to kill him!

Now the emperor is not only delirious, but even intentionally avoiding them. It is almost impossible for him to come forward to take charge.It seems that this trouble for his Chu family is inevitable...

I don't know if Liang'er has returned home now?

Chu Yuliang hurried back to the Chu Mansion, and only after asking about it did she find out that Chu Yunzhou was still in the palace.

She didn't go anywhere else, but went to wait for him to come back in Chu Yunzhou's study.She didn't know what was going on in the palace now, so she could only listen to Chu Yunzhou sending another message back.

After waiting for almost half an hour, when she was hesitating whether to enter the palace to have a look, Chu Yunzhou did not come back, but Tong Zigong suddenly came.Hearing that he was in a hurry, Chu Yuliang asked Zhang Hai to invite him to the study.

As soon as they met, Tong Zigong hurriedly told the news, "Sister and brother, something happened! The queen was bitten by a group of snakes!"

Chu Yuliang got up from the chair with a whimper, her face turned pale, "Master Hou, is it true? Where did you hear the news? Did you see it with your own eyes? What about the queen? Is she dead or not?"

Facing her series of questions, Tong Zigong remained calm, "I was just about to enter the palace, and at the gate of the palace, I met the jailer of the sky prison who was reporting to the people in the palace. Brother and sister, this is not an issue. Fake, according to what the jailer said, the queen was not only bitten by snakes, but her life was also in danger. I came here to confirm with Zixian, and ask her that she let those snakes go."

Chu Yuliang was surprised again, "Isn't Zixian in your house?"

Tong Zigong opened his eyes wide, "What? Is that woman not in the Chu Mansion?"

Chu Yuliang shook her head, "After you left, I went back home alone, and Zixian didn't come back with me."

Tong Zigong's expression changed instantly, "Damn it, where did that woman go? I just returned to the mansion, but she has already left with the child, I thought she came back to the Chu mansion!"

Chu Yuliang couldn't even stand still, so she hurried out, "I don't know if she came back later, I'll let Zhang Hai look for it."

She didn't dare to say that Zixian was leaving, at least not yet.

Not only Tong Zigong suspected that the queen was bitten by a snake was done by Zi Xian, but even she suspected that Zi Xian did it, no, she didn't doubt, she was sure!

She has never seen what a group of snakes looks like, but she believes that Zixian, who is known as the "snake girl", can definitely make a group of snakes haunt...
