Chapter 146
Chu Tanling took several steps back in fright, her face was pale and pale: "Brother Huang, what are you talking about? What poisoning? What happened to Mrs. Jin Huang?" Bravely pulled Chu Heng's sleeve, "Brother Huang .”

Chu Heng shook his sleeves heavily: "How dare you play tricks!"

Chu Tanling staggered a few times, was thrown to the ground, and red-eyed with grievance: "I don't know what you are talking about at all, brother emperor, you just want to vent your anger, and let Tan Ling die to understand."

With a cold face, Chu Heng only said: "Bring him up!"

Chu Tanling looked up and saw her maid was being pushed and brought up, with a wound on the corner of her mouth, as if she had been frightened by something, she knelt and crawled in front of her, trembling and not even daring to raise her head: "Princess, princess Your Highness."

It seemed that the crown prince tortured her maid, so she couldn't hide her tampering with Xiao Jingsi's tea, so Chu Tanling didn't hesitate to deny it: "Brother, what do you mean? I just gave Xiao Jingsi a little bit." Let's see, why are you making excuses like this?" She snorted and stood up from the ground, "I just punished you a little bit, so you won't be able to bear it?"

"Small punishment and big commandment?" Chu Heng was anxious and roared, "You dare to use peacock feathers, what else are you afraid of!"

Chu Tanling was dumbfounded by the yelling, and was stunned for a long time: "Peacock Ling? What Peacock Ling?" Only then did he realize that something was wrong, and Chu Tanling panicked, "Brother, please speak clearly, I will teach you a lesson." What is the relationship between Xiao Jingsi and Mrs. Jin? What happened to Peacock Ling? What happened to Mrs. Huang being poisoned?"

The maid kneeling on the ground grabbed the corner of Chu Tanling's skirt, trembling, and said in a staggered way: "Princess, Your Highness, the princess concubine...she is dead, she drank the tea sent to the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the imperial physician Said, peacock feathers were lowered inside, inside."

Hearing this, Chu Tanling felt as if struck by lightning.

She finally started to be afraid, and belatedly realized that it seemed that the finger was pointed at herself.

The tea in the Hall of Supreme Harmony was indeed tampered with by her, just: "Why are there peacock feathers?"

Chu Heng smiled coldly, as if he was waiting for her confession.

Chu Tanling was flustered, grabbing Chu Heng's sleeve and shaking his head vigorously: "Brother Emperor, it wasn't me, it wasn't me! I didn't do Peacock Ling, I just took laxatives, I didn't poison, I didn't poison!"

Chu Heng remained silent, staring at Chu Tanling coldly, his eyes were bottomless, unable to detect any information or emotions.

"Brother Huang, trust me, I didn't poison you, I know that Xiao Jingsi is useful to you, why would you use such a deadly poison as Kongqueling?" For fear that Chu Heng would not believe it, Chu Tanling stared at him without looking away. , hurriedly said, "And that tea was sent to the Hall of Supreme Harmony, how could it be given to the emperor's sister-in-law? Someone must have stolen the day and exchanged the poisoned tea to the emperor's wife's princess palace, brother, yes Some people want to kill me, and some people want to kill the emperor's wife."

Chu Heng frowned in thought, but remained silent.

"Brother Huang, it's really not me who poisoned you, it's someone who got in the way, it's—"

"Your Highness!" The guards who came to report from outside the hall interrupted Chu Tanling's crying, and hurried to Chu Heng, "His Royal Highness, Mr. Jin and Mr. Shoufu are here."

As soon as the news of Crown Princess Jin's death from poisoning spread, people from the Jin family came, and it took only an hour before and after, as if someone was behind the scenes and fueled the flames, pushing the matter to a point where it was out of control.

This incident could never be done by Tan Ling alone.

After thinking about it, Chu Heng said: "Take the princess down first, and she is not allowed to leave the East Palace without my permission."

"Yes."

In less than a moment, people from Jin's family entered without invitation.

Chu Heng stood up to greet him: "President Jin."

Jin Xiang went straight to the point: "His Royal Highness, Hui Qi's death, should you give an explanation to the old minister and the Jin family?"

Chu Heng remained silent, and Yuqiangong beside him said: "Please calm down, Master Xiang."

Jin Xiang yelled: "The only granddaughter of the old man died suddenly, how can you let the old man calm down!"

There is no doubt that the Jin family will never let go of the death of the Crown Princess.

At this time, the atmosphere in the Yuanzhang Hall was equally tense, and after the news of the death of the Crown Princess, the Crown Prince Liang Di stayed behind closed doors.

"Niangniang! Niangniang!"

Tong Hua, the close maid, hurried over from outside the hall: "Your Majesty, Mr. Jin Xiang is here."

Lian Chu's hand holding the teacup trembled almost invisible: "The people from the Jin family came really fast."

"The concubine is dead, the Jin family will definitely not let it go, His Highness has ordered a thorough investigation, and the slaves are afraid—"

Before the maid finished speaking, Lian Chu shouted to stop: "Shut up!" The corners of his eyes slightly raised, and his anger suddenly increased, "This matter has nothing to do with us, the poison is from Chu Tanling , the Crown Princess is Xiao Jingsi's scapegoat, the Jin family wants to settle accounts, and those two will pay for their lives, if you dare to slip up, I will tear your mouth first!"

Eyes full of sinister look, this is not the usual dignified and gentle Empress Liang.

The maid Tong Hua was so frightened that she trembled all over, she quickly knelt down and replied sweating profusely: "Slave, I understand."

"Go back."

After Tonghua exited the bedroom, the man in black behind the screen came out. He was about thirty years old, and he was strong and strong. He looked like a martial arts practitioner.

Lian Chu asked, "Can you find out who did it?"

The man bowed his head with a respectful attitude: "There is no evidence, there is no trace at all."

Lian Chu sneered, and asked with gloomy eyes: "Could it be possible that that cup of tea can grow legs to go to the palace of the princess?"

The man bent his knees and knelt down: "Miss, forgive me."

"Trash!" Lian Chu yelled, smashing the teacup in his hand to pieces.

The man knelt on the ground and was speechless. He used all the dark forces of the Lian family, but he couldn't find out.

Lian Chu pondered for a long time, and said a name: "Xiao Jingsi," paused, "Check it out from her, I, Tan Ling, and the Crown Princess didn't get along well, but she became the biggest beneficiary as a hostage. It must have something to do with her."

"Yes."

Lian Chu asked again: "What traces can be left?"

The man replied in a deep voice: "Everyone who came into contact with that cup of tea that day has been cleaned up."

"If the palace is involved in this matter, the Lian family will inevitably be involved. If Jin Huiqi dies, the ties between His Highness and the Jin family will be broken. The Lian family and the Jin family must not have any rift before His Highness ascends the throne. Lian Chu closed her eyes, and a dark layer of eyelids fell, "Remember, no one who knows the truth can be kept alive. Only the dead can keep their mouths shut for this palace."

"Yes."

The night is dim and rainy.

A mass of red and fiery light suddenly appeared, and after it dispersed, Jingyun appeared in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

He brushed his bright red robe, and stood outside the bead curtain: "Sure enough, after framing the blame, it must be murdered to silence the mouth." The national teacher really knows things like a god, and if he pinches it accurately, it may be true as rumors As the saying goes, the Demon King Zun can really prophesy?

Through the bead curtain, Xiao Jingsi's voice came over, the night was quiet, the tone was a bit ethereal, and she asked Jingyun, "Can you save me?"

Jingyun said yes, it was probably because Xiao Jingsi had a good temper, she had no airs, so she was not restrained, teasing lazily: "The girl who is cruel enough to have been with her for more than ten years is actually able to do it, half All lives are gone, but luckily no one is dead yet."

"That's good, it's only after a bit of suffering that you can recognize right from wrong, good from evil." Xiao Jingsi said flatly.

"National Teacher, what's next?" Jingyun asked for instructions, Yao Wangzun had given orders before leaving, and everything was up to the National Teacher.

Xiao Jingsi thought about it, and said: "Send that girl to the Jin family, and the Jin family will naturally ask for the rest."

"clear."

If Lian Chu borrowed Chu Tanling's knife to kill someone, then he would treat him in his own way, and he also borrowed the Jin family's knife to make Lian's family bleed.

The next day, it was cloudy and drizzled.

At Chenshi, something strange happened in the court hall.

As we all know, the Jin family and the Lian family are both the prince's in-law clan, and they have always shared the same hatred and advance and retreat with the prince Heng, but they don't want to go up this morning. The Lian family was ambitious, and killed his relatives in order to gain power.

Jin was quite in front of all civil and military officials, and asked the prince to give him a fair explanation.

However, the left and right arms are all hands, and it would be difficult for the prince to cut any one. It is probably because the prince's indecisive attitude towards this matter made the Jin family dissatisfied.

In one day, the two major clans of the princelings turned against each other.

For a while, there were many discussions in the court. The concubine died, and the in-laws of the Jin family and the East Palace were broken. The prince will definitely not fight against the Lian family again for the sake of the Jin family, but the century-old Jin family cannot be offended. This former main force who assisted in ascending the throne will become resistance.

It was originally a matter of the inner house of the Crown Princess and Prince Liangdi, but it involved such an earth-shaking coup.

It was night, the moon was covered by dark clouds, the spring rain continued, the sky darkened early, and there was no star. Candles were lit early in the Hall of Supreme Harmony. Because of the death of the Crown Princess, the entire East Palace was hung with white silk, which was a bit gloomy and desolate.

The candle light flickered, there was the sound of footsteps, Xiao Jingsi got up, walked over to lift the bead curtain, smiled, and before she could speak, someone hugged her body, the cool body temperature, and the tip of her nose seemed to have a faint fragrance.

"A Rao."

Chu Yu leaned next to her ear, calling her in a drawn-out tone.

Xiao Jingsi reached out and hugged his waist: "You are back." She sniffed his breath vigorously, and when she hugged him, she suddenly realized that she missed him so much.

Chu Yu buried his head and rubbed against her neck, and his cool lips slightly pressed her drooping lips. He seemed unhappy, and said sullenly, "You are not good."

Xiao Jingsi tilted her head, raised her eyes to look at Chu Yu's eyes: "Huh?"

He raised his head, and clasped her waist tightly with both hands: "Didn't you tell you to wait until I come back?"

Presumably, he knew about the incidents in the Eastern Palace these days, but after walking for three days, he became extremely restless.

His family, Ah Rao, is really good at it!

Xiao Jingsi had a smile in her eyes, she shook her head: "It's not me." Then she said, "They provoked me first." Her tone added a bit of grievance for no reason, and her eyes were covered with a layer of water vapor, with a delicate light and shadow.

She had never been like this, begging for mercy to him.

Knowing that she did it on purpose, Chu Yu's heart was still very soft, he just wished he could hold her for intimacy, and dig out his heart to her.

Chu Yu smiled: "Really?"

She nodded vigorously, her tone seemed annoyed or resentful, soft, but also a little stubborn, and said: "Even Chu wants to poison me to death, and Jin Huiqi also hopes that I will die."

It was the first time Chu Yu heard Ah Rao complaining.

Presumably, she was afraid that he would annoy her for acting alone, so she used the beauty as a cover to soften his heart and make him reluctant to blame.

Indeed, he couldn't bear it, even if she didn't do anything, he would submit to her, not to mention showing weakness to curry favor with her.

Chu Yu rubbed her face, his hands were a little cold, then he retracted, his hands went around behind her, he was much taller than her, and he rubbed the hair on the top of her head with his chin: "Well, it's all the fault of those bad women, Ah Rao, you are not wrong at all."

Xiao Jingsi smiled lightly, with a childish look in her eyes.

After kissing her hair, Chu Yu asked her: "They plotted against you, shall I avenge you?" The voice was very soft, coaxing and bewildered.

She nodded and said, "OK."

Chu Yu likes her gentle and obedient appearance very much, his A-Rao will only let go of his indifference and alienation to him, and be so obedient and well-behaved.

Chu Yu hugged her shoulders, swaying from side to side in a happy mood, suddenly thought of something, frowned, and met Xiao Jingsi's gaze squarely: "And Chu Heng, he is the most shameless, if it wasn't for him coveting her life and death. You, you won't provoke his woman to take out your anger."

Xiao Jingsi didn't refute, and listened obediently to his ramblings.

After he finished speaking, he was still a little annoyed, and solemnly said to his A Rao: "A Rao, look, most men in the world are fickle lovers, so forget about three wives and four concubines. , all of them are dissolute, sentimental and shameless, they are not good things, you stay away from them, don't be taught badly."

"..." Xiao Jingsi couldn't get around, she didn't know how Chu Yu would bring up such a thing.

Chu Yu, whenever he has the opportunity, he will tell his family, A Rao, about the sinister human heart, how other males are unrestrained and love beauty. In short, I want to tell A Rao that other male species are not good birds!Be sure to stay away!Of course, except for Chu Yu himself.

Xiao Jingsi laughed: "Not all men in the world are like this, the Sixteenth Lord and Wen Bohou are both long-term lovers."

She just said it casually, and Chu Yu became very serious. Hearing her praise others from his family's A-Rao was really displeased: "Feng Chaojiu and Wen Siran, one looks forward and backward, the other is despicable and shameless. Neither are good birds."

Xiao Jingsi: "..."

Chu Yu said righteously: "They can't compare with me."

Xiao Jingsi couldn't help laughing, and asked jokingly, "Why?"

Chu Yu was serious and serious: "I am prettier than them."

Xiao Jingsi couldn't help laughing.

The next day, it was cloudy and rainy, with lingering drizzle, accompanied by wind, cool and cold. The Xiling court hall was also like this weather, cold and gloomy, as if a storm was waiting to explode. The relationship between the Jin family and the Lian family The contradiction intensified.

In the early morning court, the Jin family participated in the Lian family's murder of the emperor and poisoned the imperial court, and invited the imperial hospital to testify, accusing the second daughter of the Lian family, who had been ordered by the crown prince to poison the emperor while she was working in the imperial court.

This time participating in the performance, not only the Jin family and the Lian family, but also the East Palace were completely torn apart.

However, Grand Tutor Lian said that the second daughter, Lian Chu, died of illness half a year ago, and the Jin family was bloody, so there was nothing wrong with wanting to punish her.

For a time, even the family and the prince's crime of regicide was criticized by all officials in the government and the public, but there was no conclusive evidence.But at this time, not only the head of the imperial hospital confessed that the imperial court lady Lian Chu had poisoned and murdered her, but Tong Hua, the maid of Lian's family, testified that the prince Liangdi Lian's family was not Lian Zhi, but the imperial court lady Lian Chu who passed away in a fake manner, and testified against the prince Liang Di poisoned and murdered the concubine Jin, and there was even a porcelain vase with peacock feathers as evidence.

After such a series of ups and downs, the crown prince Chu Heng couldn't argue with a hundred words, and the crime of killing the king had already been confirmed.

But one day, the voices of the ruling and opposition parties to depose the prince became louder and louder. Many princelings even turned against each other and joined the camp of the third prince, King Chu.

After such a coup, Prince Chu Heng suffered.

At night, Chu Yu came to the Hall of Supreme Harmony very late, perhaps because Chu Heng was busy quelling the criticism from the court, the entire East Palace was quiet and empty, except for the guards outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony who did not withdraw.

"A Rao."

"Ok?"

Chu Yu hugged Xiao Jingsi and lay down with all his clothes on.

He propped his face with one hand, his loose collar slipped slightly, revealing his delicate and fair collarbone, his eyes were lingering, and he stared at the woman in his arms: "There is already a reason to depose Chu Heng, Ah Rao, even You have done a good job with the family and the Jin family, can you leave the rest to me?"

Xiao Jingsi quickly said, "I will help you."

Chu Yu smiled and pecked the corner of her lips: "If you protect yourself, you are helping me. Don't forget, you are my biggest weakness."

As long as she is safe, he has nothing to fear.

Xiao Jingsi pressed against his heart, rubbing against his heart: "I know."

He raised his hand and stroked her hair lying on the couch, his movements were very light: "I will raise my troops in three days, and when Chu Heng withdraws the defenders of the East Palace, Jingyun will come and take you away. You don't care about anything." , wait for me at the Chu Palace."

She buried her head in the position of his heart, her hot breath brushed by, a little itchy, her voice was soft and tired, and she said, "I will play by ear."

As long as it's about him, she never pretends to do it, and she never stays out of it, and she does everything by herself even at the risk of taking risks.

Chu Yu raised his voice: "Ah Rao is obedient."

She raised her head, and her bright eyes seemed to have clear spring water flowing through them, and the color gradually became clear.

"I won't lie." Xiao Jingsi looked at Chu Yu intently, "I can't guarantee that I can wait for you in a safe place under any circumstances, Chu Yu, I can only guarantee that I will go wherever you are."

I can only guarantee that I will go wherever you are...

His Ah Rao can always make him surrender with just a few words. In this way, he can poke his heart, let alone stand, he can even give her his soul and life immediately.

Chu Yu was helpless, and sighed softly: "You are always like this, I always have nothing to do with you." Brushing her face, he leaned over and pressed her face against her, and asked, "Ah Rao, do you know that I am the last one?" What are you afraid of?"

Her gaze was lingering and gentle, staring into Chu Yu's eyes.

He said: "I am most afraid that one day I will become your weakness and make you suffer."

Once, he was afraid that she would not like him as much as he liked him, and that she would care less.

Now, he was even more afraid that she would be like him, who would sacrifice her life for love.

He, he is always afraid and trembling towards her.

Xiao Jingsi smiled, put her arms around Chu Yu's neck, and said, "I'm happy with it."

Usually indifferent as Xiao Jingsi, but sweet words can kill Chu Yu.

Chu Yu leaned over and held her lips: "Ah Rao, stop talking, I can't stand you talking to me, I will,"

The words stopped abruptly, he took her hand, put it on her abdomen, and slowly lowered it...
