After the prince enters the play

Chapter 335: 335: Arrest

Chapter 335: 335: Arrest

Su Xinyi looked at Mrs. Marquis Wu'an indifferently, and her eyes showed her contempt without any concealment.

Mrs. Marquis Wu'an couldn't help but tremble when she saw Su Xinyi's eyes like this, and then she felt a little annoyed, what was she afraid of, since she was also the prince's natal family.

"Ma'am, is this treating everyone as fools?" Su Xinyi didn't plan to show her face anymore, it would be useless to have a face on her body.

"What?" Madam Wu Anhou looked at Su Xinyi in astonishment. What does this mean?
"Miss You came from Luzhou back then, and met His Majesty outside the city. What a coincidence. Later, she took her into the palace and asked the empress to allow her to attend the summer banquet, but she dropped a glass at the banquet. The lamp has attracted His Majesty's attention. What happened yesterday, Miss You had an accident again, and again and again, one person after another is either a coincidence or an accident. Do you really think that others don't know your plan?"

Mrs. Wu'anhou's face seemed to be on fire, and then it was covered with black again. She looked at Su Xinyi and said, "What does the crown princess mean by this? I really don't understand it. I just ask the crown princess to look at it. The relationship between the two families is nothing more than a passing word from the previous generation, if the Crown Princess is unwilling to speak out, then why humiliate the courtiers and Xiang Ruo so much."

Hearing Madam Wu'anhou's righteous words, Su Xinyi couldn't help but sneered, "Madam, I don't know if you believe it or not." After speaking, he glanced around and saw that there were people in the distance, and there was no one who didn't agree. Leaning over wisely, she looked down at Mrs. Wu'anhou slightly, and said in a low voice: "If you want people not to know, you have to do nothing. I don't know what face Wu'anhou will have in the future. The queen empress, for the benefit of the future, actually wants to put Sending You Xiangru to the dragon couch is really shameless!"

Mrs. Marquis Wu'an: ...

Su Xinyi raised her head immediately after scolding someone, the smile on her face was still warm and gentle, and she walked away without waiting for the other party to counterattack, suffocating her to death.

Mrs. Marquis Wu'an was so angry that her eyes went black for a while, and then she recalled Su Xinyi's words and felt completely chilled from the beginning to the end. If she dared to say this, the prince must know it too.

Mrs. Marquis Wu'an only felt her hands and feet were cold. Although their relationship with the prince had never been close, they were from the prince's family after all. The prince is already very dissatisfied with the Marquis of Wu'an.

At this moment, Mrs. Wu Anhou only felt a chill on her back, and she broke out in sweat from the cold.

There was a constant flow of people around, and Mrs. Wu Anhou didn't want to be found out that their relationship with the prince had fallen to the bottom, so she forced a smile and walked back slowly.

The more they thought about it, the more scared they became. Before, they thought that what would happen if Xiangrui entered the palace. Throughout the ages, many sisters entered the palace together, and there were not a few aunts and nephews who entered the palace.
If it wasn't for the fact that the first queen was short-lived and the prince was cold by nature, why did they bother to deal with it so much?
Mrs. Wu'an Hou thought about it more and more, but the previous fear gradually dissipated.

Su Xinyi frightened Mrs. Marquis Wu'an, and she was in a very happy mood. Last night's depression was relieved a lot. She met several wives along the way, and she even greeted them kindly.

What happened last night has already spread throughout the camp. Today, everyone's expressions are somewhat gossipy. Even when they meet the Crown Princess, there are some people who make inquiries inside and outside the words.

Naturally, Su Xinyi wouldn't confide anything easily, she would say that she didn't know anything, and no one else would dare to grab her for questioning.

Soon, His Majesty decreed to leave the camp and return to Beijing.

Taking advantage of the time when Lianqiao and the others were packing up, Su Xinyi went to see her aunt and mother by herself, and happened to meet several older brothers who were also there.

Su Bei looked at Su Xinyi and smiled, "Sixth Sister came just in time. The things you asked to do have been arranged. Now I have to leave the camp and return to the capital. I will let Zhanqiao be notified of the follow-up matters when I return to the capital."

Su Xinyi nodded, "I can rest assured that third brother will do things."

The eldest lady said from the side: "I didn't expect that what happened last night would be so involved. After I go back, I have to inform your grandfather and uncle."

"Auntie worked so hard, King Xiang was assassinated last night. It can be seen that there must be a mastermind behind the scenes. Now we have no idea who the enemy is, and we need to ask the family to be more careful." Su Xinyi said hastily.

The fourth lady was worried, looked at her daughter and said softly: "Your elder brother is still in the south, so I don't know if it will be in danger. I remember that you said that King Rong would return to Beijing soon, why is there no news yet?",

If King Rong returned to Beijing, Su Yi's side would naturally be there soon.

Su Xinyi shook his head, "I'm not too sure now, I'll talk to my family after I ask His Highness later."

The eldest lady looked at Su Xinyi when she heard the words, "Your elder brother is such an adult, he knows that he takes care of himself, if it's inconvenient, don't ask, how can you bother His Highness the Crown Prince with everything."

The eldest lady was worried that her natal family had too many things to do, and she was so tired that Xin Yi lost face in front of the prince.

Soon, the delphinium came to remind him, and Su Xinyi had to bid farewell to his family and leave.

The fourth lady looked at her daughter's back and sighed softly, and the eldest lady smiled and said: "Don't worry about the fourth brother and sister, I have an idea in my heart when I look at Xin Yi, and it will definitely be fine."

The fourth lady said: "Sister-in-law, who did you say was responsible for what happened last night?"

The eldest lady shook her head, "It's hard to say now, the situation is a bit unclear."

I thought it was Concubine Li Gui, mother and son joining forces with the Marquis of Wu'an, but now it is King Xiang and You Xiangru who are unlucky. They can't be the ones who hurt themselves. There must be another hand behind this, but I don't know who it is .

The eldest lady is worried, the enemy is not scary, what is scary is the invisible enemy, like a knife hanging from the top.

On the way back to Beijing, Su Xinyi did not ride a horse this time, but sat safely in the carriage. The prince accompanied His Majesty in the carriage, and the two husband and wife looked at each other from a distance.

After entering the city, the crown prince first escorted His Majesty back to the palace. Su Xinyi's carriage turned to the direction of the East Palace, and the wives from other mansions also returned to their respective mansions. Only a few important officials were called into the palace by His Majesty.

It seemed that there was a trace of tension in the air. After returning to the East Palace, the tense nerves gradually eased. Su Xinyi changed into a normal suit, and went into the study after a brief familiarization.

Just as he sat down, Zhang Jian came with a letter.

Su Xinyi didn't expect that the letter was for her. The signature on the envelope made her eyes shine, and she opened the letter immediately. The letter was written very simply, which is not like King Rong's style. In the past, she would have nagged for several pages. He is willing to give up, but now there is only one page, and only two things are written. The first is that he is about to arrive in the capital, and the letter is sent two days before his departure. He talked about the current situation in Zhangping Mansion.

The aftermath matters are numerous and complicated, and they are very trivial. King Rong did not ask for credit this time. He only said that the prefect newly sent by the court was very capable. Su Xinyi only mentioned it when he saw the last thing King Rong said. After walking around, I couldn't wait for the caravan of Su Deng and others to return to the city.

Su Xinyi sighed softly, the battle with the Tatars was all messed up, and he wondered if his cousin's caravan was affected.The situation on the grassland must have changed a lot, I hope they have a safe journey.

Fortunately, they kept going west at the beginning, as long as they were not in Tatar territory, there should be no big problem with their safety. This was the only thing Su Xinyi could comfort himself.

Now that King Rong said that their caravan has not returned to the city, it is good news for Su Xinyi. The fact that they did not return to the city means that they traveled a long way back then. , the Tatar side will not be as tense as it was just after the war.

And there are Pang Lan and Mu Xing, in order to avoid risks, they may take a detour.

If you make a detour, the time will inevitably be extended.

Su Xinyi put away the letter, changed her clothes again, and went to Yuanhui Palace to inform the queen.

Walking all the way with the delphinium, Su Xinyi hadn't arrived at the Yuanhui Palace, but halfway saw Concubine Qi Xian coming from the Imperial Garden with an unexpected expression.

Now that we have met, we have to come forward to salute.

Concubine Qi Xian was taken aback when she saw Su Xinyi, then she cleared her expression and said with a smile: "Where is the princess going?"

Su Xinyi and Concubine Qi Xian have never had much contact with each other. They usually meet in Yuanhui Palace, but Concubine Qi Xian is paying her respects to the empress, and Su Xinyi has not spoken a few words to her.

"I'm going to Yuanhui Palace." Su Xinyi said with a smile.

Concubine Qi Xian took a look at Su Xinyi, smiled, and then said: "I'm afraid it's a coincidence, the empress is probably not in Yuanhui Palace right now."

Su Xinyi smiled when he heard the words, "Since that's the case, it's a coincidence that I came here. Thank you, Concubine Xian, for letting me know."

Concubine Qi Xian said: "It's just a matter of one sentence, what can it do. But this time the hunting of the crown princess became a blockbuster, your skills are really good."

Su Xinyi couldn't figure out the meaning of Concubine Qi Xian's words at once, so she said a few words along with herself, "It's just a coincidence. If Concubine Xian has nothing else to do, I will go first."

Concubine Qi Xian moved out of the way, "Prince Princess, do as you please."

Su Xinyi smiled and bid farewell to Concubine Qi Xian, but did not return to the East Palace, but continued onwards. The Empress was not in Yuanhui Palace, so it was the same if she left the words to Zhao Nanny.

What's more, when Concubine Qi Xian came over from the imperial garden just now, her expression was obviously not very good, and she didn't know what happened in such a short time.

It's just that luck is not so good, not only the Queen is not here, but also Madam Zhao. When Su Xinyi saw her, she didn't leave a message and planned to come back tomorrow.

On the other side, Concubine Qi Xian went back to her Zhaoyang Palace with a sullen face, and felt uneasy halfway, she thought for a while and turned her head to go to Chunze Palace.

Concubine Ruan Ming didn't expect that Concubine Qi Xian would come over at this time and welcome people in. Seeing Concubine Qi Xian's expression was not very good, she immediately raised a little caution, and said with a smile: "Sister Xian Concubine, what's wrong?"

After Concubine Qi Xian sat down, she looked at Concubine Ruan Ming and said, "People are really incomparable. You said that something happened to King Xiang, what does it have to do with us? Didn't I come back by car and feel a little bored, so I went to the Imperial Garden for a walk I didn't want to meet Concubine Li Gui, but instead got scolded by her."

Concubine Ruan Ming was really taken aback by these words, and said: "Isn't the imperial concubine busy with Prince Xiang's affairs, are you still in the mood to visit the garden?"

This is unlikely, right?

King Xiang is the lifeline of Concubine Li Gui, so how could he not care about it.

After hearing Concubine Ruan Ming's words, Concubine Qi Xian sighed, "Why don't you say that I was unlucky, Concubine Li Gui asked to see His Majesty but was rejected by His Majesty, turned around and called the Empress Empress, you said Concubine Li Gui didn't hold back her anger .”

However, she is unlucky today, and she can still encounter such a thing while visiting the garden, so there is no reason for it.

Concubine Ruan Ming also sighed straight after hearing this, "There's nothing we can do about it, we can't compare."

Can't compare to what?
The two of them knew each other well.

To say that when they first entered the palace, the two of them were also pretty young girls, and they had a glorious life, but they couldn't stand up to Concubine Li Gui's high means, who knew how to invite pets and be human, comparing them to tofu dregs, Fortunately, the two of them were lucky, and they didn't have a long time to be in favor, but they got pregnant early and gave birth to sons one after another, so that they could become concubines and gain a foothold in the harem.

However, even though she is a concubine, she is much worse than the favored concubine Li Gui, and lacks confidence.

"Huh." Concubine Qi Xian's expression was not very good, "It's just that we can't compare, but the children can't tell." When she said this, she turned her eyes and lowered her voice: "You said that this time King Xiang and You Xiangru were blocked. In the tent, I heard that the clothes are disheveled, so I have to marry him back home, right?"

Concubine Ruan Ming was taken aback, "Marry home? Impossible, then You Xiangru is just the daughter of a tea horse ambassador, how can she be Princess Xiang, one Aunt Fu in Prince Xiang's mansion is enough to suppress Li Guifei, another You Xiangru Can the fennel not turn the world upside down?"

Concubine Qi Xian had a cold smile on her face after hearing Concubine Ruan Ming's words, "There is Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion behind You Xiangru, you said Marquis of Wu'an's mansion took so much effort to get people here this time, we are here She won't be able to squeeze in at the boundary, and she can't be beaten by chickens and eggs, I think they must keep their eyes on the position of Princess Xiang."

Concubine Ruan Ming was silent, her mind was spinning fast, she paused for a while, and then slowly said: "I'm afraid it's impossible for the main concubine, but there is still hope for the side concubine."

Concubine Qi Xian pointed in the direction of the East Palace, and sneered, "Side concubine? I'm afraid she doesn't have such a blessing."

Concubine Ruan Ming was silent for a while, and then said softly: "Sister Xianfei said that it is probably impossible with Miss You's face, either she is the concubine or she doesn't come in."

That face is five or six points similar to that of the previous empress. No matter how I think about it, I feel uncomfortable with such a face as King Xiang's side concubine.

Even if the two of them are like this, let alone the East Palace, what is His Majesty thinking.

"I'm afraid the imperial concubine will be in trouble this time." Concubine Qi Xian sneered.

Concubine Ruan Ming said disappointedly: "What's the point of fighting, it's not as relaxed as we are."

Concubine Qi Xian: ...

It's not that she doesn't want to fight, it's just that she doesn't have the ability. If she has the means and family background like Li Guifei, she will naturally fight for her son.

Not only Concubine Qi Xian and Concubine Ruan Ming were concerned about You Xiangru's whereabouts, but many people inside and outside were also concerned.

At this time, Yan Junchu was facing the saint.

He got a few confessions in his hands, and together with the testimony provided by Mrs. Andinghou before, even he himself has some doubts about the direction of the matter now.

At times like this, Yan Junchu will not hide anything. He and his father are both father and son, and they are also monarchs and ministers.

"My son looked at several pieces of evidence together, and found that the matter was a little subtle, so I asked my father to take a look at it." Yan Junchu offered his mouth.

Hu Siyi quickly walked over and bent over to take it, then turned around and walked in front of His Majesty, put the confession on the imperial case, and bent back to the side.

The emperor didn't go to get the confession, but looked at the prince, "What do you think?"

Yan Junchu said without hesitation to his father's gaze: "The imperial doctor checked the pulse, and there are indeed traces of the medicine in the ninth brother's body, which shows that his statement is correct. He did take it by mistake, which made people excited for a short time and slightly lost his mind. Under such circumstances, what he did to Ms. You was really involuntary and understandable. "

The emperor lowered his head slightly, wondering what he was thinking about and didn't speak.

When Yan Jun first saw it, he paused for a moment and continued, "As for the source of the medicine that the ninth brother took by mistake, according to the clues provided by Mrs. Andinghou, it has something to do with Xu Yurong, but Xu Yurong is currently practicing in Yuling Temple. I usually don't go out easily, whether the medicine came from her or not needs to be summoned for interrogation, and even if the thing is owned by Xu Yurong, then who did she administer the medicine to King Xiang, and what is the identity of the guard who gave Miss You the way? The purpose, whoever is behind it needs to continue to investigate."

The emperor finally looked up at the prince, "The guard committed suicide after being arrested?"

"Yes, I haven't caught him yet, but I saw someone summoning him, so he swallowed poison and committed suicide." Yan Junchu sighed softly, "Father, this man despises his own life so much, it can be seen that he should be a dead soldier who has been trained. "

"Is the clue broken here?"

Yan Junchu nodded, "Yes, if we can still find a breakthrough, we can only interrogate Xu Yurong."

The emperor suddenly said: "This Xu family, I remember that she seemed to have some relationship with the empress?"

"Yes, Mrs. Xu used to be the empress's niece and daughter-in-law." Yan Junchu said.

Seeing that the emperor was still frowning, Yan Junchu added, "Because of Liang Ju's case last time, the Shu family was also implicated in it. , Later Xu went to Yuling Nunnery to lead his hair and practice."

Thinking of this old case, the emperor's face darkened slightly, "From this point of view, this Xu family is indeed not a law-abiding person, so arrest someone for interrogation."

Once the guiding guard died, all the clues would be cut off. If he wanted to send someone behind the scenes, he could only arrest the person who provided the medicine. Xu Yurong couldn't escape this time.

"Yes, my son, I'll let someone go to Yuling Nunnery." Yan Junchu replied decisively, hesitating for a moment, Taiyou looked at His Majesty and hesitated to speak, "Father, the matter of Ninth Brother and Miss You... Now there are rumors outside, if it cannot be dealt with as soon as possible, I am afraid that the reputation of the ninth brother will also be affected."

The emperor looked openly at the crown prince, and when he mentioned You Xiangru, he seemed to be talking about a stranger. The emperor slowly withdrew his gaze and said, "Go and do your work, I have my own plan."

 Today's update is sent, cute little ones.
