Chapter 126 125. Lin'an's letter? Here you go!
**
Assassinated?!
General Shen actually encountered an assassin? !
No, who is so bold as to assassinate General Shen?
Everyone in the hall looked at each other and a commotion broke out. Everyone was whispering, and some were speculating why Shen Yu had been assassinated.
Xiahou Ling, however, stood there calmly, holding the tablet.
She took in the expressions of everyone present: Taifu Wang was surprised, Prime Minister Gao looked solemn, everyone was in panic, and the princes were also confused and nervous, especially the Third Prince Chu Huaian, who had been on good terms with Pei Huaizhi. He had not dared to say a word since he went to court.
Only one person... seemed to be relieved under his tense skin.
Suddenly, Xiahou Ling had an idea in mind.
"Could it be that they are the remnants of the Pei family who are causing trouble for the country? Because General Shen exposed their treason, they want to use this opportunity to take revenge?!"
"That must be the case, Your Majesty! The Pei family must be exterminated completely!"
Everyone speculated that this assassination attempt was caused by the Pei family, but the emperor did not take any action.
At this moment, Xiahou Ling suddenly spoke up: "Your Majesty, before entering the palace this time, General Shen Yu said that he had received a secret letter about...Princess Lin'an."
Everyone was in an uproar again.
After all, although Princess Lin'an was not in the court or in Da Sheng, she had made many real achievements.
For example, this time, being able to obtain evidence of Pei Huaizhi's treason must have taken a lot of effort.
I just don't know where Princess Lin'an is now, and why she didn't return to the court in person with the secret letter for such a big event. You know, His Majesty favors her the most. If she can win some merit in front of His Majesty this time, the final position...who knows who will get it.
Da Sheng had a female emperor and there were female officials in the court. Although men still occupied the main positions in the court, there was no opposition to women becoming emperors.
Naturally, there were many people in the court who supported Princess Lin'an.
"What secret letter is it?"
When he heard that it was Guan Chu Qingyan, the Emperor of Chu really perked up and sat up straight on the dragon throne.
Xia Houling did not ignore the sudden tense gaze.
"General Shen told me before that this secret letter was written to you by the princess herself, and that you must open it in person, so he has not opened it."
Although the man concealed it very well, he really looked like he was relieved.
After this round of testing, Xiahou Ling sneered in his heart. It seemed that there was no need to test further as the person had already been identified.
"but--"
Xiahou Ling changed the subject and continued to report, holding the tablet in his hand: "General Shen personally handed the secret letter to me yesterday, so I will hand it over today."
"..."
"Where is the letter? Take it out now! Who is General Xiahou? Tell us now, don't keep us in suspense."
"That's right, take it out and open it quickly. Is it still about Pei's collusion with the enemy, or are there other moves from other countries? Isn't it just the Huyan tribe? Is it Yun Zhao? Or are there moves from the Western Rong as well?"
The ministers are all in a panic now.
It was no wonder that they became nervous when they heard about Chu Qingyan's secret letter. It was true that every time Chu Qingyan brought them news, it was all related to state affairs and shocking.
Xia Houling just took a last look at the man, and the man was indeed moved by the excitement. Seeing that everyone's appetite had been whetted, she took out a letter that she had prepared in advance from her arms.
She stepped forward in person and prepared to present the letter to the King of Chu.
But after taking two or three steps, he was stopped by someone.
"General Xiahou!"
Chu Qingyuan walked up quickly, his face tense and looking pale.
Xiahou Ling raised his eyebrows, "Prince, what advice do you have?"
She still held the letter in her hand. The ministers were extremely anxious, but they were stopped by the crown prince. "No one can get close to the emperor. In such troubled times, we should be more cautious. I will present the letter to you."
When everyone heard it, it turned out to be so.
The prince is indeed too cautious. This is related to the safety of the king of a country, and now this incident of treason has happened. Who knows if there will be the next Pei Huaizhi among this group of people... After all, the prince is a member of your majesty's family, so naturally he is not considered an outsider.
Xiahou Ling's eyebrows were slightly curved, and the look he gave the prince seemed to carry some inexplicable meaning.
And Chu Qingyuan must also be aware that his actions were equivalent to being completely exposed in front of her.
He thought Xiahou Ling would argue with him or would not hand the secret letter to him, but he did not expect that the next moment, Xiahou Ling actually nodded.
"That's right, Your Highness is very thoughtful. Would you mind presenting this secret letter to me?"
Xiahou Ling handed the letter to Chu Qingyuan without hesitation. Chu Qingyuan still hadn't figured out what was going on. Why did Xiahou Ling hand the letter to him so readily?
But the next moment, he understood.
The word "letter from home" was clearly written on that letter!
The letter was made of the most ordinary paper, and there was no totem pattern for urgent sealing. The moment he touched it, he felt the roughness of the paper.
He understood instantly.
This is a temptation!
Xiahou Ling was just testing him!
In fact, this was a trap set up for him by Shen Yu and Xiahou Ling!
The information obtained by the informant yesterday was evidence that the Northern Province Governor Shang Huan was in collusion with him, but now that he thinks about it carefully, it was just what Shen Yu and Xiahou Ling said to lure him into the trap.
Even his assassination attempt on Shen Yu was already within their expectations!
Chu Qingyuan took a deep breath, unable to explain with what kind of mentality he had when he handed the letter to Emperor Chu.
Sure enough, the moment Emperor Chu saw the letter, he was first stunned, and then extremely surprised.
"A letter from home! Ahem... it's just a letter from home. My dear ministers, there is no need to speculate. The area around Dasheng is safe and nothing has happened."
Perhaps knowing that he almost lost his composure, the Emperor of Chu cleared his throat to cover up his gaffe.
The ministers calmed down again, but they were all thinking about it. It was just a letter from home, but they had to make such a fuss. And His Majesty was so moved just now...
The King of Chu pretended to be serious, but his heart could not help but fly back to his own Palace of Heavenly Purity. He believed it and opened it to savor it carefully... These nosy and nagging guys, if there is nothing to do, just dismiss the court immediately.
Lin'an, Lin'an actually wrote him a letter. After so many years, is she finally going to forgive him as her father?
In the hall, Prime Minister Gao coughed lightly, intentionally or unintentionally.
As if he had been reminded, Chu Qingyuan, who originally had a dazed look in his eyes, hurriedly concealed his emotions.
……
After the court session ended, the King of Chu was eager to return to his own Qianqing Palace, but was intercepted halfway.
If you ask who in the palace dares to intercept the emperor, it is naturally the empress dowager.
"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother has been missing you very much these days, so she has specially sent this servant to invite you to visit the Cining Palace."
This is Nanny Gui who serves the Queen Mother.
The King of Chu knew very well that the Queen Mother was taking advantage of her seniority and was clearly asking him for his letter!
Why? Of course, he, as the emperor's father, must read Lin'an's letter first!
