Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

Chapter 876 The sky changes overnight

The news here quickly reached the old lady.

Grandma Wang was pressing the old lady's legs. After hearing the news, she laughed and said, "The old slave said that our young master is actually very good at caring for people, but he has never met a girl who fell in love with him before. Once this girl fell in his heart, this girl No, just protect me?”

The old lady was not happy and snorted coldly, "He is protecting him? Isn't the girl Luo Xin protecting him? Such a grown man can still fall in love with a little girl. If you tell me, I feel ashamed for him! The old man Shangguan is usually How did you teach him to only make money? "

Grandma Wang coaxed slowly while pressing her legs, "Qingshan isn't here... No, Qingshan never leaves his body on weekdays, so he naturally slacks off. It's also the maid who is eyeing this opportunity! Listen! It’s not the first time he said... he’s too arrogant.”

The old lady didn't say anything. After a while, she hummed, "It's a good thing for a girl to be a little scheming. She won't suffer any loss. It's just that she's not on the right track."

"Yes...it's better for Miss Shen. Why don't we wait until Mrs. Xu comes back and the old slave comes to walk around and find out what it means for my servants to be parents? If you don't have any objections, we might as well get ready in advance."

The old lady glanced at her sideways and scolded, "You haven't even written a word yet, why are you asking? Our boy hasn't figured it out yet. He has to wait for him to confirm his mind, and then he will coax the girl's family. Okay, just nod. This is the most important thing... The girl did not want to, and finally got married in a confused way due to the orders of her parents and the advice of the matchmaker. This life is very sad..."

Grandma Wang was stunned for a moment, then she chuckled, "That's right. You're more thoughtful, I'm just impatient..."

"What's the rush... As the saying goes, good things come in hard times. Okay, don't press the button. Just pack up and go to bed. Don't worry about young people's affairs... We've taken care of all their affairs, so what do they have to worry about?" The old lady said He closed his legs, yawned lazily, and waved his hands, "Go and have a rest."

Grandma Wang nodded and said hello, cleaned up the room, closed the door and went out. When he turned around, he looked at the snowmen scattered in the yard and smiled to himself.

……

When Qingshan came back, it was past midnight. Shangguan Chu, who always went to bed on time, was waiting with yawns, as if he was waiting for his wife who had not returned home from a social gathering late at night. She was a little worried and a little resentful, so it appeared on her face. The expression on his face was somewhat ugly, "Why did you just reply? Are there any results?"

Qingshan shook his head while shaking off the scattered snow on his body, "It's hard to find this thing. There are very few people who keep it in drug stores, except for those with deep pockets who want to live in rare items... I ran around for a day and never came across a shop like this. Some of them said that they had some, and they lured their subordinates in just to sell other things... The nearby towns were all gone, and there was no hope for the towns further away, but their subordinates also arranged for manpower, and they were able to do it in the past two days. It’s time for results.”

It was expected, so Shangguan Chu was not particularly disappointed. He only thought that Ning Xiuyuan might not be able to make it in time, and Xu Siniang's matter would be revealed. How to explain to the little girl that Ning Xiuyuan was the biggest headache now? things. There is nothing I can do now.

He nodded to show that he understood, and said, "I have left hot water and dinner for you. You can go pack and eat something by yourself. It is getting late, so I will go to bed."

"Okay..." Just as he was about to turn around, Qingshan suddenly thought of what he had bumped into when he came back, and suddenly said something more, "By the way. When my subordinate came back, he bumped into many people from Pingyang County Prince's Palace. He looked at the direction they were going. It seems that he is going to the East Palace. "In the middle of the night, Prince Pingyang paid a night visit to His Royal Highness who was confined in the East Palace? Shangguan Chu frowned slightly and didn't think of the reason. He simply didn't bother to meddle in such nosy matters. He just said "I know", waved his hand and let people go out. He stood outside the door for a long time. Turned around and went back to the house to rest.

Early the next morning, news broke out in the East Palace - Prince Pingyang led people to break into the East Palace late at night. Not long after, the imperial edict was issued, deposing the crown prince Li Yuqi and imprisoning him in a prison pending trial.

However, from the time Prince Pingyang broke into the East Palace to the issuance of the imperial edict, no one could tell what happened or what was discovered.

When the news reached Ji Wuyan's ears, Ji Wuyan just smiled and didn't seem to be very interested. Cen Yan found it strange, "Normally, the Pingyang County Prince has taken such a big deal out of Li Yuqi, so he must make it public. , how can it be dealt with in such a low-key manner now? Is this Prince Pingyang such a brother-in-law?"

Naturally not.

I just wish that the other party would be notorious and reviled by all the people and never have a chance to stand up again.

The reason why it was handled in a low-key manner must be because of the emperor - the overly elaborate escape route in the secret room of the East Palace. Maybe even Li Yuqi didn't know about its existence. There is a high probability that it is the emperor who is currently in office. His Majesty built it himself when he was still His Royal Highness. He did not want this secret passage to be made public, so this shocking case that could have made the East Palace instantly irreversible was hurriedly mentioned and then gently put down. The world talked about it and inquired in many ways, but they did not know the truth. In the end, they could only It boils down to a slight loss in the battle for the right to inherit the throne.

"Lost?" Some officials were puzzled, "How is that possible? What's going on with Prime Minister Bian?"

"Not long after Bian Xiang entered the palace, he came out. He looked... lost. There was news in the palace that Bian Xiang did not see the emperor and was stopped directly. Zhang Dexian was only asked to give Bian Xiang a letter. Then the imperial concubine I also went to see His Majesty, but I didn’t see anyone... Your Majesty didn’t see anyone.”

"Could it be that...the prince is really hopeless? Things have changed overnight?"

"Actually, it doesn't count overnight. After all, the prince has been grounded for many days, and it seems that he has already lost his sacred heart."

"You know... shit! That's just His Majesty's way of balancing the two princes! Does anyone know what happened in the East Palace last night? Where are the Imperial Guards? Weren't they guarding the East Palace? They didn't see anything. What did you hear?"

The other party thought for a long time and finally shook his head, "I can't find out anything. It was almost midnight last night when Prince Pingyang went to the East Palace. He caught everyone off guard and seemed to go to the prince's study... After that, the prince went He was directly detained and sent to the sky prison, and then the Prince of Pingyang entered the palace to face the emperor. In less than half an hour, the imperial edict came down. He couldn't find out anything else. The whole Yanjing City was asking. But no one knows."

"Trash! They're all trash!"
