Secret Agent: The Devil's Favorite Wife

Chapter 233 The Queen's Handwriting

Que Ruoyu came to the Prince's East Palace to look for the Prince, but he did not expect that His Highness the Prince had already sent troops to rescue him.

Before dawn on the third day, the city gate guards opened the city gate, and it turned out that His Royal Highness and the First Prince had returned with people.

Cai Heng was slightly injured, but it was not serious, and most of the things sent by the people in the south of the Yangtze River were intact.

The emperor was happy, so he said that he would hold a banquet in the palace tomorrow night to celebrate Cai Heng's return and the happy ending of the Jiangnan incident.

Therefore, Cai Heng rested at home for a day, and the next night, he came to the palace early, waiting for a big banquet, and as soon as he walked to the palace, he saw Eunuch Gao waiting for him, saying that it was the emperor I have something to do with him.

Although Cai Heng couldn't figure it out, he also knew that it must have something to do with Jiangnan's handling of the matter this time, so he knew it clearly. He participated in the whole process of this matter, so he was very clear and he was not guilty.

When he came to the upper study room, he saluted respectfully, and saw that the emperor piled up all the memorials and asked another little father-in-law to carry them to His Highness the Crown Prince.

"You are here. You came earlier today, so I want to ask you something. This time, I was shocked. How is the disaster in the south of the Yangtze River?"

Cai Heng breathed a sigh of relief when he heard what His Majesty said. In his heart, he was most afraid that the Emperor would ask him about the Third Prince.

"Back to the emperor, although I was frightened at the beginning this time, His Highness the Crown Prince and the First Prince came down in time, so I am fine now."

"The disaster in the south of the Yangtze River was also brought under control in time. The outbreak of the epidemic was very serious, but the commander-in-chief finally proposed a strategy to put all the medicinal materials for the treatment of the disease in the well water, resulting in a very good control of the epidemic. , now the entire Jiangnan has stabilized."

"Next year, I'm sure I'll be able to return to the way it was before, and the Jiangnan Commander-in-Chief has told the minister that he must send his majesty hello, your majesty is in good health."

The emperor stroked his beard while nodding in satisfaction. The members of the Cai family were all loyal ministers and good generals, and they had done a lot of good things for the dynasty. Now that he saw another talent after the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, he was naturally happy.

"Then you will tell me honestly, which one is more responsible for this rescue, His Highness the Crown Prince or His Highness the First Prince."

Hearing what His Majesty said, Cai Heng was in a cold sweat for a while. The answer in his heart was of course His Royal Highness, but he couldn't say that. Although the current situation has become obvious, the problem is, we still have to be careful.

Now in the imperial court, because the academician is standing in the camp of the eldest prince, many officials have been reduced in the camp of His Royal Highness the prince. Although he belongs to the camp of the prince, he has to be careful.

Not daring to make a wrong step, for fear of making a wrong step and hurting the entire Cai family, he immediately wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and saluted respectfully.

"Your Majesty, each has its own characteristics this time. His Highness the Crown Prince directed the troops to rescue people, and His Highness the First Prince gave advice. The two of them cooperated seamlessly. If one of them is missing, the rescue operation will definitely take several hours."

Hearing what Cai Heng said, His Majesty already had a steelyard in his heart, and he knew how to call him.

Then, a quarter of an hour before the banquet started, His Majesty the Emperor and Cai Heng arrived together. The First Prince and His Highness the Crown Prince had already arrived, and when they saw the two of them coming together, my heart began to beat.

However, the person who played the drum was definitely not His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. His Highness the Crown Prince still knew a little about his father, at least he knew what the crown prince looked like in his heart.

Because today is just a small banquet, so the unfavored concubines did not come, only the Empress Empress and Concubine Xiang came together.

With the sound of ceremonies and music, the light of cups and the shadow of candles, the graceful body of the dancer in the hall is like an elf among flowers, causing waves of heart tremors.Seeing that the court officials were about to move, but looking at the emperor sitting on top, they didn't dare to move.

After waiting for a while, the emperor put down the chopsticks in his hand and gently raised the wine glass.

"Cai Heng had the hardest time in Jiangnan's disaster relief. His Royal Highness is also very useful as an assistant."

"Jiangnan was able to save the day. Although it is not entirely due to the two of them, they have credit as a representative. I thank you, and I also thank the soldiers and soldiers in Jiangnan who put in every effort in Jiangnan."

"I do it first and respect it."

After His Majesty finished speaking, he raised his head and drank all the wine, then put down the wine glass, and left the table with the Empress and Concubine Xiang.

It's just that everyone didn't know that the moment the empress left, the corner of her mouth said a few words to a big tree. Although there was no words, the corner of her mouth moved a few times.

When they left, all the ministers let go of their hands and feet, and began to eat, drink and have fun. The beautiful dancer served them wine and served food, and everyone ate happily. This eating also included eating the dancer's tofu.

Que Ruoyu has been staying next to His Royal Highness the whole time. She told Li Yu not to disclose this matter to His Highness.

So sitting with His Royal Highness, eating food and drinking wine, she didn't show any doubts.The eldest prince was unhappy beside him, and Huan Ziyan accompanied him, occasionally pouring him a drink.

People on both sides have completely different ways of getting along. Que Ruoyu and His Highness the Crown Prince are in the kind of getting along with each other to find faults with each other. Although they find faults with each other, they feel a kind of warmth in the process of finding faults.

But as for Quan Langyuan, he felt that getting along with this person was like being trapped, fixed in a pattern, respecting each other like a guest, and raising his eyebrows.

His Royal Highness picked up a glass of wine, and was about to take a sip when he felt something was wrong. Suddenly, a sharp and cold light appeared in the wine glass. He immediately stood up, smashed the wine glass on the ground, and looked at him coldly. On that big tree.

"Hahaha."

With a loud laugh, more than 100 men in black jumped down from the tree and some dark directions, trapping all the people participating in the banquet in the hall in an instant, and those court officials who were addicted to wine and meat also reacted instantly.

"There are assassins, escort," the grand maester shouted.

"Protect His Highness the Crown Prince, protect the First Prince." The Minister of the Ministry of Officials spoke while acting.

In an instant, Cai Heng and Wang Bo took a few officials from the East Palace and stood behind His Highness the Crown Prince.

His Highness the First Prince looked at all this coldly, unmoved at all, because he could feel the eyes of those men in black, just looking at His Highness the Crown Prince, and ignored them completely. At this time, Li Yu also brought a group of guards to speed came running.

It is so long, but in fact it is only a short moment. The blacks opened their swords and attacked them. All of them are superb in martial arts. master.

Numerous guards were forced to the point of collapse, but they still tried their best to resist, with the glare of swords and swords, every time the knife was cut, flesh and blood were torn apart and blood flowed horizontally.

"Quick, protect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the First Prince."

As soon as Li Yu's words fell, several guards with high martial arts skills jumped from the air in an instant, with their knives across their chests, protecting the two masters.

Those eunuchs who had no time to escape, as well as those servants and servants, all became souls killed by the sword. They were talking and laughing at Yanyan just now. The hall of the moonlight cup of wine has now become a mess with blood everywhere.

Que Ruoyu gestured to Li Yu in a place where no one else could see, and Li Yu nodded to her, expressing that he understood.

After that, Li Yu retreated quietly, and in about half an hour, a large number of guards came up again, but if you look carefully, you can feel that this group of guards walked lightly, and they were undoubtedly the masters of the inner family at that time.

After coming up, all the blacks were knocked to the ground within a stick of incense, and those who survived were imprisoned in the sky prison. At this time, His Majesty the Emperor heard the news and rushed over.

And through the exit of the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, I learned that these people came to assassinate the prince, and was furious immediately, and handed over this matter to the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, with His Royal Highness as the assistant, when the First Prince heard it, his face was livid and he shook his head The one with the sleeves left the hall.

At this time, in the Queen's Palace, the teacup fell to the ground with a bang and was smashed into pieces, including everything on the dressing table, all turned into pieces.

"It's too much to dare to take this palace by one hand. The strength that I have cultivated for so many years has been removed by one move. It's just that this palace is strange. The guards in the palace can't do anything to them. How did they deal with it? It was premeditated."

Chang Lu stood beside her trembling, and the Empress turned to look at her with a livid face, and said, "Is there any problem with the person who delivered the letter this morning?"

Chang Lu was startled and his face turned pale. Fortunately, it was night and the queen didn't see it.Chang Lu understands that even if there is a problem at this time, it can only be said that there is no problem. Who dares to say that there is a problem?If you dare to say that there is a problem, you must die.

"Your Majesty, there will be no problem. The time to deliver the letter is still so early, unless someone deliberately."

Hearing what Chang Lu said, the empress's face became even uglier, and her face was a little distorted.

"It seems that His Royal Highness is really going to do right with me, and dare to eliminate all of my strength outside the palace. This time, I will definitely not let him go."

Immediately, he took out a pack of medicine from under the cabinet of his dressing table and handed it to Chang Lu.

The two have had a tacit understanding for many years, and this matter is naturally known.

"His Royal Highness has been kept in stock for too long. Before, he knew how to restrain himself. Recently, he has become more and more rampant. He must be reminded of how powerful this thing is."

After all the men in black were imprisoned in the prison, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials took his nephew Cai Heng to go for interrogation.

Que Ruoyu returned to the East Palace with His Highness the Crown Prince. Quan Xiaoli looked very unhappy and ignored Que Ruoyu all the way. Que Ruoyu also knew that he was wrong at this time. He should discuss this matter with His Highness the Crown Prince.

"I'm sorry, it's not that you don't know. Acting has to be complete, otherwise it will be easy to be suspected, so it's best that you don't know about this matter. Only Li Yu and I know."
