Cat Lord is ready to be captured

Chapter 195 Chapter 190 Four Chu Yu's Secret

"I knew it two years ago. I heard that it was a snake demon. Didn't it mean that it was captured by the empress who was still the national teacher at that time? What kind of monster is it this time?"

"Who knows, maybe—"

Several court ladies were talking vigorously, but were suddenly interrupted by a cold female voice: "You guys are so courageous, you are talking nonsense here in broad daylight."

Several people turned their heads suddenly, and were terrified immediately. They all knelt down and begged for mercy: "Miss Zixiang, please forgive me, this servant is guilty, this servant is guilty."

Zixiang glanced coldly: "All of them will be dragged down to hit thirty big boards."

The maids thanked them and went to receive the punishment by themselves.

When Zixiang entered the palace, he called Yunli over, with a very bad expression on his face.

"Sister Zixiang, what's your order?"

Zixiang's expression was cold: "I changed all the maids in the outer palace, and you selected them yourself."

Yun Li didn't ask much: "Okay."

"What's going on?" Xiao Jingsi came out of the palace, and saw Zixiang's expression was serious and worried.

Zixiang walked over to help, and replied: "The court lady Tongwen who held the lamp for the emperor died that day, and her body was abandoned in the dry well of the cold palace. Someone found her body this morning."

If only a maid died, the commotion would be a bit louder.Xiao Jingsi asked, "What's wrong?"

"The state of death is very strange."

Xiao Jingsi asked, "What's a strange way?"

Zi Xiangsi thought for a while, but still knew everything: "Master, you still remember that two years ago, there were palace people who disappeared in the palace. Later, it was found out that those people were all captured by the snake monster of the Liuli Palace. Sorcery, sucking human blood, and I couldn't draw a drop of blood during the autopsy." Zixiang paused for a while, with a stern look, and said, "The corpse of Tongwen is exactly the same as the person who was sucked by the snake demon. It's not artificial, it's a demon."

The demons of the entire human race, she knew, only those few came and went, the more Zixiang thought about it, the more uneasy she felt.

Xiao Jingsi was slightly taken aback, paused, and sat down slowly: "That's Beiying's forbidden blood-eating technique."

Zixiang also heard from Jingyun that Beiying forbids the cultivation of forbidden techniques, and the snake demon is practicing this method when he becomes a wall. What she doesn't understand is: "But the snake demon has long since died, who else could it be?" It's still the emperor's own hands, there is no mistake, Zixiang guessed, "Could it be that the snake demon died and resurrected?"

Xiao Jingsi fell silent, frowned and thought for a long time: "Chu Yu blocked the news outside the Xingyue Palace long ago in order to let me raise my baby with peace of mind. How did you know?"

Zixiang didn't think much about it, and replied truthfully: "When the people from the Department of Clothes Bureau came to deliver the clothes, they told the rough envoy maid outside the Xingyue Palace."

Xiao Jingsi thought about it, and closed her eyes with a half-smile: "It's the clothing department again."

again?Why?
The more Zixiang talked about it, the more confused he became, and he felt that something was wrong, and the more complicated the matter seemed, the more complicated it seemed, and he didn't quite understand: "But is there something strange?"

"On the night of the founding palace banquet, someone from the Clothes Bureau came to spread the word that Chu Yu had summoned the dancing girl."

These words were probably passed on to her. There is no impenetrable wall in the palace. Even if Chu Yu blocked it, it would always reach her ears. Naturally, it would not be a coincidence.

Only then did Zixiang remember: "It was indeed said by the maid from the Clothes Bureau who came to deliver the clothes."

Xiao Jingsi thought about it for a while, and then told Zixiang: "Who is the female official in the Department of Clothes Bureau?"

"I'm going right now."

Zixiang immediately went to Shang Gongfang, and returned to Xingyue Palace in a short while, hurrying.

She hurriedly said: "Master, the female officer Chengyi of the Department of Clothes Bureau is the daughter of the Zhou family."

Xiao Jingsi was surprised: "Zhou Weichong's daughter?"

Zixiang nodded: "It is the daughter of Zhou Taibao who has been sent to Changzhou." She couldn't help guessing, "The daughter of the Zhou family is secretly making trouble. Could it be that the Zhou family is unwilling to live in the barren land of Xiahe and wants to climb the dragon and the phoenix and make a comeback?"

A few days ago, Chu Yu took advantage of Xiao Hui's incident to offend the Zhou family, but forgot that the daughter of the Zhou family was still in the palace.Xiao Jingsi thought: "I remember that two daughters of the Zhou family entered the palace and became female officials."

"It's the two sisters who are twins. I saw their portraits. They are beautiful, and the two sisters are very similar. The elder sister is in charge of the Department of Clothes Bureau and calls Zhou Ruo, and the younger sister Zhou Yi works in the Department of Bao Bureau."

Xiao Jingsi pondered, and said: "Zixiang, you go to the clothing department for me again."

"I'm going right now."

Ever since the harem was disbanded, not to mention the Leng Palace, even the Sixth Courtyard of the Sangong has been empty and deserted for a long time. Who would go to the dry well behind the Leng Palace if they have nothing to do? Those who wanted to throw the corpse also thought of this before choosing there, but the news came from Si It is indeed very strange that the news of the clothes bureau came out, and it is not accidental in all likelihood.

Zixiang went out of the palace, and after a short while, he turned back again, with an incredulous look on his face, and said: "No need to go, the Department of Clothes Bureau is flooded, Zhou Ruo is dead." She went to Shang Gongfang to investigate, and the Department of Clothes Bureau The fire went off on the back foot, which was so strange that it was hard not to doubt it.

It's not too early or too late, Xiao Jingsi laughed: "What a coincidence."

In the evening, Chu Yu came back a bit late, Xiao Jingsi was very lethargic with her pregnant body, if it was the past, she would have gone to bed by this time.

It was cold in the early spring, and the hall was still covered with warm jade, so it wasn't cold. Xiao Jingsi was nestling on the imperial concubine chair, holding bamboo slips and reading, the candlelight illuminated her outline softly, she was fascinated by it, and she didn't even notice that Chu Yu came in.

Seeing that Sun Tzu's art of war can be so engrossed, I'm afraid only his family, Ah Rao, Chu Yu walked over and took the bamboo slip from her hand: "Why aren't you asleep?"

She stretched her waist and hooked Chu Yu's neck: "I'm waiting for you." The smile was shallow and a little lazy.

Chu Yu kissed her arm where the sleeve had slipped off, picked her up horizontally, put her on the bed, tucked in the quilt, and patted her on the back to lull her to sleep.

Xiao Jingsi didn't feel sleepy, and looked at Chu Yu clearly with black and white eyes: "Chu Yu, what happened in the palace?"

Chu Yu's face suddenly sank: "Who is talking nonsense in front of you?"

His reaction seemed to be a bit extreme, a bit like trying to cover up.

Xiao Jingsi didn't have any particular mood swings, and said: "There are a lot of people in the palace, and the high-walled compound is the most airtight. How can I not hear the wind."

Chu Yu held her face, rubbed her cheeks, and brushed her hair hanging on the mandarin duck embroidered pillow. He didn't intend to talk to her, but coaxed her: "You are about to have a baby, you need to cultivate well , don’t worry about anything else.”

He avoided talking about it, obviously not wanting her to know.

Xiao Jingsi frowned: "If you don't tell me, I will be more curious."

She is stubborn, if she doesn't say anything, she will try to find out.Chu Yu closed his eyes, his long eyelashes cast a gray shadow on his eyelids, and he was silent for a long time.

He asked her, "How much do you know?"

Xiao Jingsi got up from the quilt, not feeling sleepy at all, her clear and bright eyes seemed to be able to see everything, and she looked closely at Chu Yu: "Tongwen's death was caused by the monster clan, Chengbi is dead, in the palace Who is practicing the forbidden technique?"

She knows a lot.She has always been extremely intelligent.

Chu Yu pulled the brocade quilt up, wrapped it around her shoulders, and replied casually, "It's a wild monster that Beiying fled."

She looked at him, and he looked away, concentrating on making her bedding.

Xiao Jingsi asked again: "Did you catch it?"

"Ah."

What else does she want to ask.

Chu Yu touched her face, feeling a little cold, and helped her to lie down: "I'll take care of these things, don't worry, Ah Rao, close your eyes and rest first, when you fall asleep, I still have some state affairs It needs to be dealt with." Leaning over and kissing her eyes, Chu Yu coaxed softly, "Don't think about anything, just sleep well."

She closed her eyes and didn't ask any more questions, fearing that even if she asked again, Chu Yu wouldn't let her know.He, he made up his mind to hide it from her.

Chu Yu patted her back lightly, covered her belly with warm palms, and rubbed her belly repeatedly. It was very comfortable. After a while, Xiao Jingsi breathed steadily and felt drowsy.

The lights in the room were turned off, the bed curtains were lowered, and Chu Yu left the bedroom. After a while, Xiao Jingsi opened his eyes again and called Zixiang softly.

Zixiang waited outside the house, and replied: "Master."

The room was quiet, with no candles, and Xiao Jingsi's voice came from the dim night, not at all troubled: "Go and investigate, why did the Department of Clothes Bureau leak? There is also Zhou Ruo's bones, let me do an autopsy."

"Yes."

After being silent for a while, Xiao Jingsi said, "Don't let Chu Yu know."

"Zixiang understands."

Zixiang raised her head to look at Mingyue, her brows were tightly frowned, she couldn't understand these two people more and more, one was hiding the truth and the other was pretending not to know, it was clear that the two people who loved so deeply, in the end What are you thinking about?
In such a thick night, there were still people awake outside the hall, and the patrolling guards were standing tens of meters away, and the shadows of people were shaking under the high wall.

In the distance, with hurried footsteps, it was Jingyun who hurried over.

"Your honor."

"How?" The outline was cold and stiff, and the palace lantern in the distance came from one side, reflecting Chu Yu's eyes flickering and dimming, and it was cold.

Jingyun somehow felt cold on the soles of his feet, with a strong sense of oppression and coercion coming from above, he hurriedly replied, and couldn't help but be more careful: "It's all been dealt with."

Chu Yu ordered in a deep voice, "Ah Rao has already suspected it, and must not leave any trace."

The voice was extremely cold, and against the cold winter night, Jingyun suddenly felt panic. After thinking and thinking, he said earnestly: "Paper can't wrap fire, I'm afraid that Her Majesty the Empress will find out sooner or later. After all—— —”

After all, nothing was said.

Chu Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, and there was a sharp look in the corner of his eyes: "Then kill everyone who might let her know."

This hostility is so heavy!

Jingyun secretly peeked into Chu Yu's eyes, in the dark pupils, there seemed to be a faint scarlet, like a shocking blood.

Chu Yu has become murderous again!Recently, he has been killing this and that at every turn.

"Your Majesty!" Jing Yun pondered for a long time, his expression became more serious and serious, he knelt down with one knee bent, and said meaningfully, "Master Jing Yun, please think twice, don't want to kill rashly, enough is enough."

Chu Yu shouted: "Enough!"

Jingyun's heart skipped a beat, and she was very panicked.

Chu Yu's voice was extremely sinister and impatient, "If you say one more word, this king will not even forgive you."

After speaking, Chu Yu turned around and the phantom disappeared.

This teleportation demon technique is also perfect!Jingyun couldn't help thinking deeply, with a sad look on his face.

The demon master of Yishui came from the dark, patted Jingyun who was in a daze, and looked very anxious: "How is it?"

Jingyun shook his head: "Your Majesty is getting more and more hostile." He sighed heavily, "Your Majesty is really playing with fire."

It was Chu Yu who ordered Beiying to forbid the cultivation of sorcery. Now, His Excellency has broken his prohibition with his own actions. All principles, rules, and consequences are all bullshit in front of Xiao Jingsi!Just Xiao Jingsi is the sky, the earth, and the courage to live!

well!It's really worrying.

"His heart has not healed, and he is eager for success. If this continues, I am afraid that His Majesty will be possessed by demons."

Once bewitched, returning to animal nature, bloodthirsty, the consequences are unimaginable, ordinary monsters will be fine, but the demon king of Beiying is bewitched, and the entire demon clan is in danger. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is possible to destroy the world of.

Jing Yun thought carefully and was terrified, looking at her old father, her eyes met, she was helpless: "Then what else can I do? What His Majesty has to do, except Xiao Jingsi, who can hold him back."

The Demon Lord of Yishui pondered for a while: "You have to tie the bell to untie it, so let Xiao Jingsi pull it." Others don't say they can't pull it, even if they can pull it, they dare not, who knows if they will be beaten? Death, he could feel the murderous aura even from a long distance.

Jingyun frowned: "Your Majesty said, whoever let her know will be killed."

"..."

kill kill kill!Animal nature is evil!The father and son could do nothing but sigh.

Early the next morning, the sun was warm and the weather was excellent. Chu Yu went to court, and there were visitors from the Xingyue Palace.

Yun Li came to report and said, "Your Majesty, His Highness Prince Jin is asking to see you."

Xiao Jingsi only said: "Please."

Feng Yuqing was dressed in ordinary civilian clothes, a simple and neat attire, Xiao Jingsi knew his purpose at a glance, and ordered someone to fetch tea.

Xiao Jingsi spoke first: "Are you here to say goodbye? When are you leaving?"

Earlier, Feng Yuqing had told her that she was going to Xiahe, and after the Three Kingdoms Merger Ceremony, Xiao Jingsi also saw his written notes in the study.

Feng Yuqing sat down casually, and said: "Tomorrow, tomorrow, I will leave for Xiahe to become the king of the county." He added, "My mother and concubine will also go together." At first, I wanted to leave without saying goodbye, but I couldn't bear to see you The last side, maybe, after this time there will be no future.

Xiao Jingsi didn't talk much, and he didn't gossip about family affairs, he looked indifferent, always without a trace, and just said: "I'm not feeling well, so I won't go see you off."

Feng Yuqing laughed. He had no intention of asking her to give it away, so he followed her words and said in a half-joking and half-serious tone: "Then make me a pot of tea, and treat it as a gift."

Xiao Jingsi smiled and said yes.

The palace people brought tea, and the well water was the clear spring of Tianshan Temple outside the palace. They set up a tea table, a porcelain pot, which was the best Dong Kiln celadon, and two porcelain cups.

She moved slowly and patiently. She warmed the tea on a low fire and cooked it slowly. The rich tea aroma overflowed. She filtered the water once, poured in clear water and boiled it again. After several times, a faint tea aroma emerged.

Xiao Jingsi poured a cup for Feng Yuqing, but poured a cup of warm water for herself. She was pregnant and hadn't drank tea for a long time.

Feng Yuqing brushed away the tea buds on the surface of the water with the tea cover, took a sip carefully, and said with a smile, "If you don't become an empress in the future, you can go to Princess Lingzhi's tea shop to make tea."

Xiao Jingsi snuffed out the fire, but replied quite seriously: "With my skill, I can set up my own family without any problem."

Feng Yuqing chuckled and drank slowly.

Xiao Jingsi offered some tea, but he hesitated to speak, his eyes were meaningful, Xiao Jingsi raised his eyelashes.

She said, "You seem to have something to say?"

He shook his head and said nothing.

Forget it, he came to say goodbye after all, and considering her health, it's better not to say anything.

"You want to talk about the court?"

Xiao Jingsi's words were very firm, without any emotional fluctuations, as if she had predicted it, Feng Yuqing was surprised: "You know?"

She nodded.

Sure enough, as smart and astute as Xiao Jingsi, how could she know nothing about court affairs, after all, the Wei family still had a general Anyuan and a left minister in court.

She put down the glass and asked him, "What do you think?"

Feng Yuqing thought for a while, and continued to talk about the matter: "Although the old officials of the Xiling Dynasty were old-fashioned and the big families were in collusion, they were not guilty of death, even if the crime was unforgivable. In the early days of the founding of the country, the world was turbulent. At this time It is not appropriate to wantonly behead the important ministers of the old court." Frowning, Feng Yuqing looked at Xiao Jingsi's expression, and said, "Recently, Chu Yu seems to be ready to kill at every turn, and there are already complaints in the court. It can be deterrent, but too much is too much."

As soon as Feng Yuqing's words fell, Chu Yu's violent and hasty voice came to him: "What are you talking about?"
