Chapter 294: There Are Assassinations Happening One After Another. Who Is Behind It?

"Is it related to Duke Xingguo's mansion?" The Queen's face was as gloomy as water, as if something was condensing in her body, making her look cold and gloomy.

"Mother, I really can't say for sure, otherwise as Mrs. Xingguo, why would I have to deal with a daughter from a noble family who came from a small place?" King Zhou also looked coldly.

The two people stopped talking at the same time, and the room was filled with a dull atmosphere. This was a problem that neither of them had thought of, so it was difficult for them to digest for a while.

Duke Xingguo was a kind man. Although he had a high position, he was considered to be a very good person in the past. He was also well-rounded. He seemed not to offend anyone and did not seem to be on any side. The Empress, Queen Zhou, mother and son also tried to win over him again and again. , but he declined every time and expressed his loyalty to the emperor.

This in turn means that no matter who sits in the position of the emperor, he is loyal and can be regarded as a direct minister and loyal to the emperor, and does not join any faction.

Although the Queen Mother and her son were not happy, they felt that this was fine. At least Duke Xingguo would not have anything to do with anyone else. But what did this situation mean at the moment? Could it be that there is something strange going on in the Xingguo Palace?

"Secretly sending people into Duke Xingguo's Mansion to investigate!" After a while, the Queen Empress said with a low face. Regardless of whether this matter was really related or not, the Queen felt that she must pay attention to Duke Xingguo's Mansion...

No one expected that the banquet that seemed to be held grandly ended up passing so quietly. No one performed on the flower bed that was set up. The Queen came over during the banquet, and then took Zhou with her. Wang left early.

King Yue and King Xin just sat there for a while, turning a blind eye to the shy and eager eyes of the affectionate ladies from aristocratic families, and then left.

As for King Chen, who was said to be unknown whether he was alive or dead, not even a human figure was seen.

There were whispers among the aristocratic families that this time they were going to select concubines for several princes, and they disappeared without a trace, as if none of the rumors that excited the aristocratic families had happened before.

Before the banquet, it was vigorous, but after the banquet, it was dull. The reason for this was because other things that happened were too shocking, and no one paid attention to the feelings of these little children.

First of all, someone at the palace gate wanted to assassinate His Highness King Chen, and the horse he used was actually the horse of Prince Zhou's palace. The groom committed suicide immediately after returning to Prince Zhou's palace. Later, there was the incident of King Zhou kneeling in front of the imperial study room to plead guilty. The Queen came with him to plead guilty.

Later, there was another assassination incident of King Yue. It happened suddenly when King Yue was returning from the palace. At that time, not only King Yue but also King Xin were in the car. The two princes were each injured. Fortunately, the guards They tried their best to save them and allowed them to escape back to the palace. What was even more surprising was that when King Zhou was in the palace at night, he was also assassinated.

One by one, the princes were sent to the imperial hospital. The imperial doctors were all panic-stricken. These were all descendants of the phoenix. If anything happened to any one of them, they would not be able to bear it.

Moreover, these princes were all seriously injured. The emperor temporarily ordered them to stay in the Tai Hospital. Half of the doctors in the Tai Hospital were on duty every day. No one dared to take it lightly at this time.

Several sons had accidents one after another. The emperor was shocked and furious. The entire capital was under martial law. No one dared to gossip on the street for fear of violating the royal taboo. Everyone only dared to talk about the weather when they met. Haha I don't dare to spread rumors about anything.

Wang Yishu's matter was buried quietly. In this case, who cares about the dispute between a little-known girl from a small family? Even though it happened in the palace, this time in the palace There are more things to investigate. This kind of thing between women in the backyard is too small.

But not everyone cared about it. The imperial doctor at the Imperial Hospital had a severe headache. Miss Wang Yishu and Wang were randomly placed in a corner after she was sent to the Imperial Hospital, but she was unconscious and could not be saved. Unable to save him, the imperial doctor had no choice but to ask Duke Xingguo to take him away.

But things happened one after another in the palace, so she was left idle in the corner. Anyway, she was not the real lady of Xingguo Duke's mansion.

In this case, who cares about her life or death.

And Duke Xingguo's Mansion never sent anyone to pick her up, so in a corner of the Imperial Hospital, Miss Wang passed out like this for two days!

Chu Liuchen was the first to arrive at the Taiyuan Hospital. Naturally, he occupied the best courtyard in the Taiyuan Hospital. Incense was burning in the room, and the lingering ambergris could only be supplied by the royal family. This refreshing and peaceful fragrance flowed from the window. A jade-colored beast came out of the swallow, clear and distant.

Chu Liuchen's body was leaning on a soft couch. He looked very lazy. His handsome eyes were slightly raised and he looked out the window. It was a good weather outside the window. The sunshine was good. It came in through the window and reflected him. The whole person felt more alive.

Only Xiao Xuanzi accompanied him in the house, and everyone else stayed outside the courtyard.

There don't seem to be many people outside the hospital, but in fact there are quite a few guards hiding in the dark. Everyone is staring at these courtyards nervously, for fear of making the slightest mistake. Several of the emperor's princes are in the hospital. If this is true, If something goes wrong, no one can take the responsibility.

"How are those injured?" Chu Liuchen asked, his eyes gentle.

"His Royal Highness King Zhou was injured more seriously. The other two were fine, just scratched their skin a little!" Xiao Xuanzi curled his lips in disdain and made such a big fuss, thinking that it was nothing serious. It's just a scratch on the skin.

"Chu Liuzhou was seriously injured?" Chu Liuchen said nonchalantly. He stretched out his hand and elegantly picked up a book to read. Xiao Xuanzi opened it secretly. It turned out to be a medical book, and it looked like it was a rare book. Don’t you like reading medical books like this the most? When did you change your hobby?

"His Royal Highness King Zhou is indeed seriously injured. He is still lying down and unable to get up. The Queen has visited several times and she is very sad every time."

Xiao Xuanzi reported.

"Where's the injury?" Chu Liuchen asked nonchalantly, his eyes turning, his expression gentle and harmless.

"I said I hurt my arm and was stabbed hard by a sword. Now I can't even lift my hand!"

"It's really good!" Chu Liuchen said pointedly.

"What do you mean?" Xiao Xuanzi asked cautiously.

"I don't mean anything, I just think the water is mixed, it's pretty good!" Chu Liuchen seemed to be in a good mood, his handsome eyes turned and he smiled elegantly.

"Master, if the banquet can't be held, will your princess be unable to be booked?" Xiao Xuanzi blinked and asked.

"I don't need a princess!" Chu Liuchen seemed to be in a good mood, picked up the medical book in his hand, slapped it on the table twice, and said with a smile.

"Didn't I tell the Queen Mother that day that I thought Miss Qin Er was good? Besides, didn't I try my best to save Miss Qin that day?" Xiao Xuanzi felt that he couldn't understand, so he raised his head and dared to be surprised. asked his master.

No one else knew what happened that day, so how could Xiao Xuanzi not know that Miss Qin Er, whom his master asked the guards to rescue, had his carriage behind him. Hearing that there was a traffic jam ahead, Miss Qin Er's carriage was in front, so his master He got off the carriage and walked slowly forward.

My father also saw clearly what happened to the old beggar from outside the crowd. After the maid and the coachman left, the galloping horses came, so he asked the guards to save Miss Qin Er, but also ordered Miss Qin Er to be pulled over to him. , then Miss Qin Er bumped into her father and knocked him unconscious.

From Xiao Xuanzi's point of view, all this was because his father wanted to like Miss Qin Er. How come the boss's intention was not to marry the princess, so why did he do all this?

Xiao Xuanzi is a young eunuch who has been in the palace since he was a child and has been growing up with Chu Liuchen. He is Chu Liuchen's confidant, but he really doesn't understand what his father is thinking this time, causing such a big drama. I almost had an accident, but in the end, there was loud thunder and light rain.

Xiao Xuanzi felt like he was at a loss. The prince really almost had an accident this time. With the prince's body, such a collision would really cause serious trouble. Xiao Xuanzi was so frightened that day that he almost fainted, but the incident happened suddenly , that’s what I ordered, and the guard did it. Xiao Xuanzi didn’t even have time to object.

When he saw Chu Liuchen knocked unconscious and fell to the ground, if he didn't still have some sense, Xiao Xuanzi would have gone crazy with fear. How could such a thing be a joke?

"I am still young and don't want any princess!" Chu Liuchen said calmly, not feeling any of Xiao Xuanzi's messy thoughts.

"But I told the Queen Mother that I feel good about Miss Qin Er?" Xiao Xuanzi repeated with a sad face.

"So what?" Chu Liuchen raised his eyebrows.

"Miss Qin Er is so outstanding. If I really have no idea about Miss Qin Er, I'm afraid she will be chosen by other princes!" Xiao Xuanzi felt that it would be better to hint at his father from other aspects. No matter how he looked at him, he It doesn't look like he's enlightened, he's really not as good as a little eunuch.

But thinking about his master's body and bones, Xiao Xuanzi suddenly understood that the few charming maids sent by the Queen Mother and the Empress to make the master understand human affairs were thrown out directly, and some of them didn't even have their heads. Well, it seems that we have to find a way to get the master to accept the teachings of such a maid who understands human affairs!

"They don't dare to choose my people!" Chu Liuchen smiled, with a gentle and harmless smile. The sun fell on his face, as handsome and gentle as a banished immortal in the sky.

If you only looked at his face, no one would think how scary the beautiful young man in front of you was, and how cruel and arrogant the words meant.

Xiao Xuanzi also trembled, looking at his master's handsome face with an angry face, he suddenly understood! It turns out that the master had expected all this!

"What do you mean?" Xiao Xuanzi shook his head, nodded and smiled.

"See if the one over there is dead. If not, throw him out. I will be upset!"

"Yes, Master, I will take care of it in a moment!"
