The daily life of Dali Siqing

Chapter 657 Night Party
"His Royal Highness said that it was Yu Dashi who wanted to see me!?"

After hearing the words of Princess Nine, Han Sumi's face was filled with unexpected surprise and uncontrollable joy.

"That's right! Aunt Han. I don't know exactly what it is. That Jinyiwei Qianhu Zhao Zheng is just passing on the message for the senior scholar, and he doesn't know what it is."

While speaking, the bright eyes of Ninth Princess Zhu Qionghua couldn't help observing Han Sumi's reaction.

There must be some unknown secret between Aunt Han and Bachelor Yu.

While the first disciple Zhu Qionghua was still struggling with the gossip between Aunt Han and Master Yu, the younger disciple Zhao Min was already thinking about the jockey Mizu.

This is the gap in structure between people.

"I see."

Although Han Sumi was delighted to meet his sweetheart, he probably knew what Yu Yanyi wanted to ask.

With Yu Yanyi's personality, there is no second possibility between the two of them.

"Your Highness, come with me tonight! The matter may have something to do with you!"

Zhu Qionghua was stunned, even though she was ice-snow and smart, she was still young, so she couldn't figure out what Han Sumi meant by this for a while.

However, Zhu Qionghua still readily agreed. Aunt Han watched her grow up and was the head of the Lijing Sect, so naturally she would not harm her.

Not to mention Yu Yanyi, who has made great contributions to the government and the public, and has contributed to helping the poor, but he is not at all proud of taking credit for it.Neither public nor private morality can be slandered.He is also the half teacher of his benefactor, counting seniority, he is Xiaojiu's teacher.

Such two people are naturally worthy of trust.

The gods are still busy, and the people at the bottom don't know that there is a storm in the court.

In the streets and alleys of the square city, there are peddlers and pawns, and caravans come and go, and the prosperity remains the same.

A busy day, the golden crow falls and the jade osmanthus rises.

In the night, two groups of people entered a small restaurant.

Of course it wasn't the Wuyou Tavern the day before yesterday, but another restaurant, which was owned by the Ninth Princess Zhu Qionghua.

Even though Xiao Jiu is young, she is also very talented in financial management and business. In today's royal family, Xiao Jiu is the richest man in the royal family, not counting the value of the land in Huangzhuang.

She also has many assets in the capital.She is also managing Shisan's property, and the restaurant where everyone met tonight is Xiao Jiu's property.

"Master Yu." After Han Sumi saw Yu Yanyi, although his face was still graceful and elegant, the joy in his eyes could not be concealed.

Both parties came in black robes to conceal their identities.

Whether it was Yu Yanyi, Han Sumi, or Jin Yiwei Qianhu Zhao Zheng, the identities of the three were not simple.

Especially Yu and Han.One is the prime minister who holds the military and political power in Gyeonggi, with one person under one man and more than ten thousand people;

These two people should not and cannot have any intersection.

If these two join forces, it is not impossible to change the throne and overthrow the world.

So in this case, the two of them had to be more restrained.

Yu Yanyi is very clear about this, and so is Han Sumi.

Few people knew about Han Sumi's feelings for Yanyi, not even Emperor Zhou.

No one would care about who was the cleaning maid in the Hall of Martial Arts when Yu Yanyi was on errand? !

In the eyes of outsiders, the only intersection between the two was during the Battle of Jinyang, when Han Sumi once protected the army commander Yu Yanyi while protecting the King of Chu.

Of course, this is an external statement. As for who is being protected, His Royal Highness the King of Chu is very clear.

"Han Shang Palace!"

Yu Yanyi also bowed to Han Sumi. In Han Sumi's eyes, this bow was like the first day he went to the Hall of Martial Arts to be on duty.

Just for a moment, Han Sumi withdrew her thoughts, at her level of martial arts, few things could distract her.

Yu Yanyi brought Zhao Zheng, a close friend of King Chu, who has been conquered by Yu Yanyi's personality charm and has become his half younger brother.

Han Sumi brought the Nine Princesses and another girl.

Li Jingmen, Mu Xiaochan!
This is Li Jingmen's second Dongxuan master, and also Han Sumi's successor.

In the 13th year of Cicada, Mu Xiaochan has finally mastered it, living to death, thinking about the mystery.

Among the more than ten yuanhua realms closed to death, only Mu Xiaochan has broken through life and death.

As for the rest of the people, they were really closed to death and could never wake up again.

This is the cruelty of the 13-year-old cicada. Although it goes straight into the cave, it is paved with countless bones.

That's why when Zhang Sanfeng passed down this martial art, he forced Emperor Gao to swear a heavy oath that he must choose from among the condemned criminals to cultivate.

I don't know whether it was luck or misfortune, but from then on, among the criminals who were exterminated, girls under the age of three were able to survive, and the price was the 13 years of cicada cultivation.

Mu Xiaochan was also one of them. Her father was the envoy of Jianghuai Salt and Iron. Because of colluding with Yangzhou salt merchants, she tried to evade the salt class.

Only then did Mu Xiaochan of today's Lijingmen come into existence.

Yu Yanyi didn't exchange many pleasantries, and got straight to the point.

"The purpose of my inviting Han Shanggong here today, I think you should have guessed a thing or two!"

Han Sumi nodded, "I was not in the palace that day, Li Jingmen was under the command of Xiao Chan at that time, if Sir Yu wants to ask anything, just ask Xiao Chan."

Mu Xiaochan bowed to Yu Yanyi upon hearing the words, "Xiaochan definitely knows everything."

"On the day the late emperor passed away, who was responsible for the guards around the late emperor!?"

Xiao Jiu, who didn't know what she was here for, felt a "thump" in her heart. Now she kind of knew what she was here for!
Could it be that there was something else hidden about the death of the emperor that day? !

Mu Xiaochan replied without thinking, "At that time, Yuhuatian, the governor of the Xichangchang, was defending the emperor, and I was in charge of patrolling the imperial city to prevent anyone from sneaking into the imperial city."

"Remember so clearly?!"

Mu Xiaochan nodded and said, "That was the first time I replaced Master and led the Lijingmen, so I remember it very clearly."

Yu Yanyi turned his attention to Han Sumi, "At that time, Han Shanggong was leaving the palace, but to assist Cao Zhengchun from Dongchang to escort the elixir to Beijing?"

This matter was originally a top secret, but now that the late emperor is in command of the dragon, there is nothing to hide.

"Exactly! At that time, Cao Zhengchun was blocked by several Dongxuan masters in the Jianghu. Although Wudang Mu Taoist helped him, he was still struggling. After receiving the news of Cao Zhengchun's request for help, His Majesty ordered me to help."

Han Sumi is not the strongest master in the palace, but he is the strongest master Zhou Emperor can mobilize.

Even if it makes the heroes dim, it is difficult for Han Sumi's sword to get a little bit of advantage under the ninefold Ming Yugong's invitation to the moon.

Except for Yang Qingyuan, the masters at the peak level of Dongxuan's combat power are even better than Liu Dufeng, the chief arrester of the six sects before the breakthrough, who was beaten to death by Xu Fu.

(Liu Dufeng: There is no need to add such attributives as being beaten to death by Xu Fu...)
Yu Yanyi could also understand Emperor Zhou's behavior. After all, according to Li Binhu and Wan Mizhai, Tianchang Pill can continue his life against the sky, so he can't take it too seriously.

If it wasn't for Zhuge Zhengyi, the Marquis of the Sixth Five-Year God who was seconded by Yang Qingyuan, Emperor Zhou would even send the Marquis of the Sixth Five-Year God to go there.

Of course, at that time, there was also a master in the capital city, the owner of Hulong Mountain Villa, Hou Zhu, the God of Tiedan, ignored him.

But Emperor Zhou didn't let him go, he was just seriously ill, not brain dead.

Ask Zhu Wushi to escort Tianchang Dan, then he will probably be able to escort you to the belly of that Jianghu woman named Su Xin.

Although Mu Xiaochan is also in the Dongxuan realm, he is only a new Dongxuan after all, and Yuhuatian is a veteran Dongxuan, and he is deeply trusted by Emperor Zhou, so the task of protecting Emperor Zhou is naturally not on Mu Xiaochan's body.

"As expected..." Yu Yanyi muttered to himself, but Cao Zhengchun did not hide anything about it, "Then when Dongchang Pi Xiaotian sent back the Tianchang Pill, Miss Shepherd, you were by the emperor's side."

Mu Xiaochan shook her head when she heard the words, "At that time, the Lijing Gate was only guarding the outside of His Majesty's bedroom, and I was also guarding the empress, so I don't know what happened."

After changing the subject, Mu Xiaochan continued, "But after this incident, I asked the sisters of Lijingmen. At that time, the big stall in Dongchang, Scalp Xiaotian, really carried a big box into the late emperor's bedroom. In the middle, the big box is still exuding cold air, when I passed by, my sisters in the Lijingmen could clearly feel the temperature above."

"That's the box that holds the Tianchang Pill."

Yu Yanyi learned from Li Waner's mouth that Tianchang Pill is not an ordinary pill, and it cannot be polluted by the world's dirty air.Although there is a package of elixir, it should still be stored carefully, and finally it can be placed in a low temperature environment.

"So that day, the Tianchang Pill was indeed delivered!" After Yu Yanyi frowned, he continued to ask.

"Then when did the late emperor die, and when did the crown prince arrive?"

This question made Mu Xiaochan recall it for a while, after all, several months have passed, if it is not possible to record it, the memory will definitely be a little fuzzy.

"When Pi Xiaotian arrived, the palace gates of the inner city had been locked, which should have happened after the end of Haishi. Not long after Pi Xiaotian entered, the imperial physician who was on duty at the side hall was summoned to enter. All of a sudden, there was a voice of mourning from the servants in the palace, the emperor should have passed away at this time, and His Royal Highness, uh...that is, today, should have arrived at the third quarter of the child's hour."

"Two hours?!"

Yu Yanyi found that things were not that simple.

"Who was it that went to inform His Highness the Crown Prince?!"

Mu Xiaochan recalled, "It was Zhang An, the imperial eunuch who notified the empress, and Chen Liwang, the leader of the squad, who notified His Highness the crown prince."

"Shepherd girl, these timings should be right!"

Mu Xiaochan confirmed, "My Lijingmen will inspect Miyagi at a certain time, and the sisters in the gate are the most sensitive to time. Even if they are not on time, they will be about the same."

After listening to Mu Xiaochan's confirmation, Yu Yanyi fell into a brief silence.

If there are no problems with these, there will be a big problem with the death of the Son of Heaven.

According to Mu Xiaochan, from Pi Xiaotian's entry into the palace to the death of the emperor, there was nothing unusual and nothing strange, but from the death of the emperor to the arrival of the prince, the problem was too big.

The person who notified the prince was Chen Liwang, the leader of the squad, who did not know martial arts.

At the time of Chou, the gate of the inner palace had been locked, and the prince's east palace was in the outer imperial city. Even if Chen Liwang held the token edict, he still needed to be verified by the officers and men of the inner palace, and then he could go to the east palace after opening the door. This process alone would take a moment Many minutes.

Adding in the time it took for Chen Liwang to set off from the late emperor's bedroom and from the inner palace to the crown prince's east palace, it would take more than two quarters of an hour.

In other words, under normal circumstances, two quarters of an hour was only enough for Chen Liwang to reach the East Palace.

But the fact is that Chen Liwang set off at the moment of the ugly hour, and the prince arrived at the late emperor's palace at about three quarters of the ugly hour.

This is impossible, at the moment of ugliness, under normal circumstances, the prince must have gone to bed.

Chen Liwang woke him up with the token of the imperial edict, dressed neatly and then came to the East Palace, half an hour was not enough.

Even if the prince didn't fall asleep that night, it would still take two quarters of an hour to travel from the bedroom to the East Palace.

How did the prince arrive early.

"Bah!"

The teacup in Xiao Jiu's hand had already fallen to the ground, her face was pale, but she didn't know it.

The answer is already obvious that the prince can reach the emperor's bedroom at the third quarter of the ugly hour.

He knew the news of the late emperor's death in advance. In other words... he decided the time of the late emperor's death...

……
-
At the hour of Haishi, the lights in the imperial study room were still brightly lit.

At this time, there were only two people in the imperial study room, the new emperor Zhu Zhankun and the governor of the East Factory Cao Zhengchun.

"Cao Aiqing, do you know what I mean by announcing you into the palace overnight?!"

Zhu Zhankun had a gentle face, like a virtuous gentleman.

But Cao Zhengchun's back felt slightly chilly. Although he was a master of the Dongxuan Realm, he couldn't fight against the imperial power.

As for the power in his hands, it was originally a derivative of imperial power.

"Slave is stupid, please tell Long Live."

Zhu Zhankun couldn't help chuckling when he heard the words, "Hehehe, Cao Aiqing! You are not stupid. If you are still stupid, there are not many smart people in this world."

In just a short moment, cold sweat oozed from Cao Zhengchun's back.

The emperor had murderous intentions. If he was outside the imperial city, he might still try to escape, but he had no life in the inner palace.

"What did you and Yu Aiqing talk about!?"

In Cao Zhengchun's eyes, this gentle and virtuous new monarch is sharpening his sword at the moment.

"Your Majesty, Master Yu just asked the servant girl why she came out of the palace? The servant girl has no personal relationship with Lord Yu! Long live the lesson!"

"Haha, Cao Aiqing, don't be nervous, even if you have a personal relationship, what can you do?! You are in charge of Dongchang, and you are my minion; Yu Aiqing is the chief assistant of the cabinet, the leader of the military aircraft, and the pillar of the country. If you can cooperate sincerely, I will It's too late to be happy! How can I blame you?!"

However, Cao Zhengchun knew that this was all an irony. If the governor of Dongchang, who controlled the power of Dongchang, and the supervisor of ceremonies, were in touch with the chief minister of the cabinet with power all over the world, would the emperor still be able to sleep peacefully? !
Is this world still his world? !
Cao Zhengchun knew that it was useless to justify at this moment, "Long live is a lesson, the life of this servant is long live, and Long live is willing to go through fire and water for His Majesty. Please give this slave a chance."

Cao Zhengchun has been in charge of Dongchang for many years, and he is also a master of Dongxuan. Zhu Zhankun never thought about really doing something against him.

"Cao Qing can have such loyalty, I am very relieved, then I will give you a chance to be loyal!"
