035

Feng Mingqi died before he could succeed in his army, and before he could harm Chu Yu, he was killed.

It is said that he was taken to the palace in less than a stick of incense and was imprisoned.

Subsequently, Concubine Liu, who had just been confined, was stripped of her title and demoted to her agreement and was sent to the cold palace.

All of this came too suddenly. When Liu Yunsheng got the news, he was so shocked that he fell directly from the chair.

"Young Master, the master fainted after learning the news. The eldest lady is staying by the bed and accompanying him." A Jing was so scared that her face turned pale.

First, Feng Mingqi was arrested into the palace, and then Concubine Liu lost power. All of this pointed out that the collusion between the Liu family and the Eastern Wu royal family had been discovered by Emperor Qinghe.

"What's wrong with the Second Prince?" Liu Yunsheng's voice trembled.

Collaborating with the enemy and treason is a death sentence for destroying the nine clans.

"It is said that Empress Dowager Liu took the Second Highness away before the emperor got angry, and it is still safe at present."

Concubine Liu colluded with the eldest prince of the Eastern Wu, so how could he, a son, pretend to be completely unaware of it?

His fate depends entirely on how Empress Dowager Liu chooses.

At this time, in Kant Palace, Empress Dowager Liu leaned on the soft collapse, groping back and forth with her fingers. Aunt Jinrong, who was beside her, looked very bad. She wanted to persuade Empress Dowager Liu, but she didn't know what to say.

"How is the second prince's mood?" Empress Dowager Liu asked with her eyes closed.

Aunt Jinrong sighed and recalled the scene when she just went to visit the Second Highness to visit His Highness, and obviously she had not come back to her senses from the madness.

"The Second Prince was frightened. I was scared once a while ago, and the situation this time was a little bit serious."

Empress Dowager Liu said nothing for a long time. On the surface, she looked calm, but only Aunt Jinrong, who had been serving her all year round, knew that this was definitely the time when the master was on the verge of explosion.

"It's the Chu family again..."

Aunt Jinrong dared not speak out.

"The emperor is not a lustful person. Even if he is really interested in the Chu family, he will never joke about the peace between Northern Qi and Eastern Wu. Even if the eldest prince sneaks into the capital of Northern Qi, he will accomplish nothing after all. But now he has thrown the other person into the prison, and even if it is reasonable, it will become unreasonable."

Aunt Jinrong also frowned and analyzed, "The Empress Dowager, based on the old slave's understanding of Your Majesty, this time he showed grace to the Chu family has nothing to do with the relationship between men and women. I always feel that Your Majesty has a strange connection with the Chu family, not just the affairs of the wet nurse, but there must be other things in it."

Empress Dowager Liu hummed, no matter what, the emperor and the Liu family are now having a broken-up relationship. In order to protect themselves, she had to do something.

"Tell the Liu family that they are all vigilant and that when necessary, they should do the necessary laws."

Aunt Jinrong's heart sank instantly. She wanted to persuade her for a few words, but when she thought of the current situation, she could only retreat.

In the warm pavilion, Lu Liunian had already woken up, and he sat on the bed in a daze.

He couldn't figure out when he was obviously such a favored prince, and he had been neglected since?

It seems that after returning from Linzhou, everything about him was developing in a bad direction and could not be controlled at all.

He asked himself that he was not inferior to Lu Fengzi in terms of knowledge and intelligence. Why was the other party born as the crown prince, and he could only be an ordinary prince when he was born?

Of course he was unwilling to give up.

If it weren't for the sake of favor, how could he join forces with the eldest prince of the Eastern Wu to plot against his own people? He has no choice.

"Second Your Highness, don't be discouraged." Aunt Jinrong heard the palace maid report about Lu Liunian's situation and hurried over from the main hall and comforted him: "Your Majesty is only two princes, you and the Crown Prince. As long as something happens there or your life is not guaranteed, why worry about not being able to control the overall situation?"

Lu Liunian, who had been in a daze, looked at Aunt Jinrong, and saw her nodding, and his eyes instantly shone, "I am naturally not afraid with the help of the Queen Mother. But my mother is now locked in the cold palace, and those concubines who have suffered losses will definitely find a way to deal with her mother."

Aunt Jinrong waved her hand, "Even if the concubine has lost power now, there is still the queen mother in this harem. As long as the queen mother is still there, the queen mother will make a comeback sooner or later."

After hearing what she said, Lu Liunian felt much better and was no longer as excited as before.

He knew that since the Empress Dowager said so, she must have other plans.

The accident of Concubine Liu caused a sensation among all the aristocratic families in the capital, and even Mr. Gu was alarmed.

In the Gu family hall, Mr. Gu listened to the news that his three grandsons had come back from various places, and the expression on his face was gloomy and sunny.

After all, it was Feng Mingqi, the eldest prince of Eastern Wu, who was instigated by Concubine Liu, who wanted to try his best to destroy Chu Yu.

But as soon as he got into the Chu family, Chu Yu and Gu Changqing joined forces to clean up, and finally threw the mess to the emperor.

Gu Changbai looked at Gu Changqing with some confusion, "Your Majesty is really so concerned about the Chu family?"

Gu Changqing nodded.

Gu Changming asked again, "It's because the old lady of the Chu family is His Majesty's wet nurse?"

This time, Gu Changqing did not nodded again because he had been doubting the matter.

From the beginning of his marriage, he felt that the Emperor Chu family was particularly good, because he was the old lady of the Chu family.

But after he brought Chu Yu into the palace last time, both Emperor Qinghe and Empress Chen's reactions were beyond his expectations.

Not only did he give him a generous dowry, he also left it in the palace to draw a small statue.

The most important thing is that Emperor Qinghe and Empress Chen’s disobedience when they met Chu Yu is enough to illustrate some problems.

Could it be...

Gu Changqing had a bad guess in his heart, and subconsciously looked up at Old Master Gu, but found that the other party was also staring at him with a meaningful look.

Neither of them expressed their doubts, but waited until Gu Changbai and Gu Changming left, Gu Changqing said: "Grandfather, I always feel that what Emperor Qinghe and Empress Chen really care about is not the Chu family, but Chu Yu himself."

Mr. Gu nodded, "I think so too. But... I have been in the capital for so many years and have a detailed understanding of the emperor. I have never heard of him having an illegitimate daughter outside."

Gu Changqing also nodded, "If it was really an illegitimate daughter, why was Empress Chen so excited? Could it be..."

Old Master Gu and Gu Changqing looked at each other, and they both saw the answers in each other's eyes, but no one said it. The shocked look on their faces betrayed their seemingly calm appearance.

"Let's look at the situation. Empress Dowager Liu will not let this go easily, and she will definitely make a fuss about the prince. You must be careful recently, but don't have any problems."

"Don't worry, grandfather, I'll be careful."
