Han Youning's expression was cold, "Concubine De's plan that day hurt more than just the prince. The crime of killing the prince is very serious. At that time, the prince and I had passed the five ceremonies, and Dingguo's mansion would definitely be imprisoned. What are you talking about with me now?" , do you think I will take care of this affection?
As for the Dingbei Army, the prince is just an idle prince, why do you want those generals to surrender?Concubine De did not want to repay, she clearly wanted to put the prince in danger. "

Yuhua wanted to say more, but as soon as Zhao Chengyuan raised his hand, the guard stepped forward and pulled her out.

Han Youning drank tea and calmed down the shock in her heart. She still had many things that she couldn't figure out.

Why did Emperor Qingming kill her? She is just a side concubine of the crown prince, and she can't even get out of the crown prince's mansion, so what can hinder him?If it was because of his father's so-called crime of regicide, he would have taken the opportunity to implicate her at that time, so why bother to make such a detour.

She originally thought that she died clearly, but now she realizes that she died so ignorantly.It's not even clear who died.

"How did the prince know about this?"

Zhao Chengyuan glanced at Luo Ping, and Luo Ping retreated to clear the guards outside the door, and stood guard under the steps again.

Only then did Zhao Chengyuan say, "That day you talked about the past life, I sent someone to investigate the third prince, and by the way, I checked the ins and outs of this matter. From the fourth prince, I went all the way to Concubine De."

Han Youning hesitated, "Does the prince know?"

"He is investigating, but the Fourth Prince and Concubine Qi dare not let him go. He just has some guesses. I didn't tell him."

Zhao Chengyuan looked at her, "But what's wrong?"

Holding the cup tightly, Han Youning said slowly, "I have been taking that poison for nearly three years."

Zhao Chengyuan's eyes turned cold.

Did the emperor poison You Ning?A little girl, why did he take so much pains to let her die unknowingly?

Han Youning said, "My lord, I want to meet the prince. Maybe he knows the reason."

Zhao Chen wouldn't say anything about the success or failure of other important matters, but he wouldn't be able to hide this matter.

Zhao Chengyuan picked up the teacup and drank tea.

He didn't want the two of them to meet, the bond between them was too deep, maybe even You Ning didn't realize how deep it was.

It's just that this is a matter of safety and security.Emperor Qingming had murderous intentions towards You Ning, it would have happened in his previous life, but he may not have it in this life.

The situation was pressing, he couldn't take the risk of procrastinating, he had to investigate slowly by himself.

He put down the teacup, "Okay, I'll arrange it."

In the evening of that day, Yongxi Hall prepared a banquet.

Zhao Chen stood at the gate of Yongxi Hall with heavy steps. He originally planned to never set foot here again in his life.

Uncle Qi Huang came here today, not in the study outside, but in the inner courtyard, but he didn't know why.

The courtyard door opened, and Ye Chang said, "Please, Your Highness. The banquet has been prepared, and the prince is already waiting inside."

Zhao Chen stepped into the yard, walked through the hallway, the door of the living room was open, and besides Zhao Chengyuan and Han Youning were sitting inside.

Under the palace lantern, she sat obediently beside Zhao Chengyuan, calm and peaceful.It seems that the years are long, and they can live in peace for a long time.

"Uncle Seven, Aunt Huang." Zhao Chen cupped his hands.

Zhao Chengyuan pointed to the seat next to him, "The prince sits."

Zhao Chen sat down and said in a low voice, "Uncle Huang invites you to come alone, not just for drinking."

Luo Ping poured wine for him, then retreated and stood guard in the middle of the yard.

Zhao Chengyuan said, "You just killed General Cen today. This is the first time the crown prince has experienced such a bloody incident. As the emperor's uncle, I should care about it."

Zhao Chen smiled lightly, his eyes were cold, his Seventh Emperor Uncle always spoke impeccably.

"What's the matter with the emperor, let's just talk about it."

"Today, Yuhua from Defei's Palace has come to Prince Jin's Mansion, you know that, right?"

"I know." Zhao Chen stared at him, "Uncle Huang couldn't be persuaded by her, and wants to intercede for third brother?"

Zhao Chengyuan helped Han Youning add soup, and said in a low voice, "You eat first, don't worry about us."

Seeing Han Youning started to eat, Fang said, "Concubine De told me a secret, maybe the crown prince will be interested."

Zhao Chen lowered his eyes and listened.

The wine emptied glass after glass.

It turned out to be the handwriting of the royal father. The royal father gave the antidote to a guard. People's hearts are unpredictable. Isn't he afraid that the guard will make a mistake?His son is so important in his mind?

That's right, the father has three adult sons, and two underage sons, and there is always one who can inherit his throne.Even if they are all dead, the father is still in his prime, and his concubines can still be born again.

His eyes suddenly turned cold, and he looked up at Han Youning.

It was the father who really poisoned You Ning back then!

Han Youning looked calm, quietly eating the food on the table.

She put down her chopsticks and said to Zhao Chengyuan, "My lord, I have a few words with His Royal Highness, please avoid it."

Zhao Chengyuan already knew about their rebirth, so he couldn't let Zhao Chen know about it, so that he could be prepared.

Surprise flashed across Zhao Chen's eyes, You Ning made Zhao Chengyuan avoid like this?Isn't she afraid that Zhao Chengyuan will suspect her?
Zhao Chengyuan stood up, gave Zhao Chen a cold look, and left the living room.

Zhao Chen looked outside, Zhao Chengyuan waved away the guards, while he was guarding at a far distance.

He turned his head to look at Han Youning, "Uncle Huang knows about you and me?"

It seemed impossible, if he knew, how could the uncle be so calm?

Han Youning shook his head, "Your Highness has seen what your Highness has done in the past few months. He believes in my innocence, and he has a broad mind. He is naturally open-minded when facing His Highness."

Zhao Chen's face was burning hot, and his gaze was sinking and sinking.

If it were him, he couldn't do it.

"Please come alone today, you want to ask about poisoning?"

Han Youning nodded, "Why does the emperor want to kill me?"

Zhao Chen was silent for a moment, "Gu has thought about this problem before, maybe it's because Ding Guogong has followed his father for many years and knows too many things, and he has a heavy army in his hands, so his father is not at ease. As for the intention to kill you, It’s cutting the weeds and eradicating the roots.”

"Father was killed in the previous life, did he really rush into the palace with a sword, intending to kill the emperor?"

Han Youning has always had this question, but the military power of the Southwest Army later fell into the hands of Zhao Chen, so she always suspected that Zhao Chen had something to do with this matter.

Zhao Chen said, "It's true that Duke Ding entered the palace with his sword and killed many imperial soldiers along the way. As for the specific reason, I have been investigating for a long time, but I can't find out why."

Han Youning looked at him, trying to see the truth of what he said.

"How can there be no clues about such a big matter? Your Highness has taken over the Southwest Army, and their generals have no suspicion?"

Zhao Chen smiled bitterly, did she suspect his tricks?
"If Gu hadn't taken over the Southwest Army, the Southwest Army would have been controlled by the Marquis of Yongping, and Gu would not be able to protect you." He paused, thinking of You Ning's ending, and smiled wryly: "That's all. It's Gu's incompetence." .”

After attracting so many forces, nothing was saved in the end.
