Chapter 1619 Concubine Xiao Yu's Palace!

? Chapter 1619

At the same time, in another place in the palace, the atmosphere was completely different.

Crash!

Hearing the sound of wings vibrating, one after another homing pigeons flew down from the sky and landed on the open window lattice of the Eastern Palace. A guard in black armor had already stepped forward, grabbed the carrier pigeon, quickly removed the letter paper from the carrier pigeon's leg, and handed it all the way up.

"Your Highness, Wang Chong and Yang Zhao have just left the clan's mansion and are heading towards Concubine Xiao Yu's mansion."

In the main hall, a counselor who was like an aide glanced at the contents of the letter, and quickly bent down to report.

The entire Datang Imperial Palace is within the range of First Prince Li Ying, not a single flower, tree, grass, or tree can escape his eyes and ears. Ever since Wang Chong's carriage left the foreign palace, his whereabouts have long been in the ears of the First Prince.

Every moment, there will be pigeons constantly reporting his position.

"Hmph, it really did not exceed my expectations at all!"

In the main hall, the eldest prince Li Ying was sitting behind the desk, playing with something in his hand, when he heard the news, a cold light flashed in his eyes.

At this moment, if you look carefully, you will find that the thing in Li Ying's hand is square and square. It is a jade seal. A five-clawed golden dragon with two eyes above the jade seal is as majestic as a prison, lifelike, as if it is about to fly through the air, it is the symbol of the highest power of the Tang Empire in the entire Middle-earth world:

Holy Emperor's Seal!

The Great Emperor gently rubbed the palm of his hand above, loving it so much that he hardly stopped for a moment. In fact, from the moment he became regent, this holy emperor's seal was brought by the eldest prince's side and never left him.

"Just after Li Heng had an accident, you entered the palace and borrowed the power of Concubine Taizhen. Wang Chong, you are really determined to fight me!"

The eldest prince was playing with Yuxi, and a murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

From dealing with the fifth prince and planning to frame him, all of Wang Chong's reactions were within his expectations, including the brocade eunuch who asked Wang Chong for help.

And from the moment Wang Chong left the foreign palace, his every move was within the expectations of the eldest prince.

"Your Highness, the king of foreign lands is very difficult to deal with. Now that he has entered the palace to intervene in the affairs of the Fifth Prince, he may be difficult to deal with. Moreover, he has the token given by the Holy Emperor to Concubine Taizhen in his hand. The current situation is probably not good for us!"

At this moment, a voice sounded beside the First Prince. Looking carefully, this person is dressed in court uniform, and he is none other than Zhu Tongen, a member of the Ministry of Officials.

According to the rules of the imperial court, all princes are strictly forbidden to form cliques for personal gain, but they have to do so in order to fight for the throne. This is true of almost all princes from top to bottom. The status of the six ministers is too impressive, and no one is moved, but it is different for those below this level.

And Zhu Tongen is one of the important aides around the First Prince. Many of the First Prince's plans were actually perfected by Zhu Tongen.

Before the eldest prince, there were still many taboos to dare not recruit Zhu Tongen into the palace at will, but after the regent, it was much easier to summon him in the name of the government.

Zhu Tongen was also one of the important participants in this operation. The struggle between princes has always been cruel, and it is already a point of no return if you step on it. Only by fighting your way through the sea of ​​corpses and blood can you ascend to the supreme position above ten thousand people and have a chance to become an important figure in the future. From the minister of the dragon.

"Hmph, my lord, don't raise the aspirations of others and destroy your prestige."

As soon as Zhu Tongen's voice fell, another sneering voice rang out in the hall. It was not the eldest prince, but another man with a cold breath, a slender figure, dressed in black, with the tip of his nose pointing down, and wearing a half black iron Shura mask the mysterious man.

His hair was hanging down, straight like needles, and his exposed eyes were like swords, extremely intimidating.

"This time, we did it seamlessly, without leaving any flaws at all. Now that Concubine Xiao Yu is dead, even if he enters the palace, there will be no clues at all. And there is no evidence to prove that we were involved in this matter. On the contrary, the fifth prince, Li Heng, caused trouble in the harem, and the evidence is conclusive, he is simply a heinous crime. Does Master Zhu think that he can leave the clan mansion alive?"

"Also, even if he is alive, how could he still compete with the eldest prince just because he did such a utterly unconscionable and contrary thing? How could the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty allow such a person to become the future prince?"

Zhu Tongen was silent, her brows were furrowed tightly, but the worry in her heart was not gone. He turned his head abruptly, and subconsciously looked at the eldest prince in the hall.

In the main hall, the First Prince just smiled indifferently. Obviously, although the mysterious man in the half-iron mask said these words, in fact, he was just expressing his thoughts on behalf of the First Prince.

"Oh, please rest assured, my lord!"

The eldest prince grabbed the jade seal, smiled confidently, and slowly stood up from his seat. At that moment, a huge aura erupted from his body.

To the First Prince, although it is only a few months to be in power as a regent, it is a complete change. Having tasted the most extreme power in this world, the eldest prince has also undergone tremendous changes, from the inside out, faintly giving birth to the appearance of an emperor.

And this is the charm of power.

"No matter what the foreign king thinks, it's not that easy for him to rescue Li Heng! The imperial palace is not a frontier, let alone the Ministry of War, and it's not something he can point out at will. Moreover, even if he wants to do something, it's already too late."

At the end, the eldest prince smiled lightly, but a sharp coldness flashed in the depths of his eyes:

"Because, I have already decided to let the fifth younger brother and Concubine Xiao Yu's affair be made public in the entire imperial court tomorrow!"

"Buzz!"

Hearing these words, Zhu Tongen was shocked, his mouth gaped, and he looked at the eldest prince in front of him in surprise.

Make it public!

The imperial court has court rules. There is a whole set of procedures for dealing with this kind of matter. Why is it seven days? Because within seven days, Fifth Prince Li Heng still has the opportunity to clear himself of his suspicions and prove himself.

Prior to this, it was strictly forbidden to spread this kind of royal family scandal.

This is the rule!

But according to what the eldest prince wanted, he was not prepared to abide by this set of rules at all. If the fifth prince's troubles in the harem were officially made public in the government and the public, even if he was finally cleared and came out of the clan mansion, he would completely lose his qualification to compete for the throne.

In the future, whether or not he can gain a foothold in the Great Tang Empire will depend on the First Prince's thoughts.

"Hmph, where did Master Zhu think of it? How could the First Prince do this kind of thing himself. Of course, it was accidentally revealed by the people in the clan's mansion. Although the court has court rules, it is impossible for someone to take care of it." You can’t keep your mouth shut. You can’t blame the eldest prince, can you?”

The mysterious man with a half black iron Shura mask on his face spoke.

The eldest prince didn't speak, but just smiled and remained silent.

"Fifth brother is too restless. He actually colluded with the Wang family and wanted to compete with me for the throne. This time, we will deal with him first, and then clean up the Wang family. I have already talked to the foreign king more than once about the way of monarch and minister, but it is a pity that he has to assist Fifth brother, once the emperor and the courtiers, when I ascend the throne, no wonder I'm cruel and merciless!"

Although the First Prince had a smile on his face, the meaning behind it was chilling.

Although the First Prince had a smile on his face, the meaning behind it was chilling.

This time, he had made complete preparations for the harem incident. Not only was there all evidence for authentication, he even made up for Xiao Yufei's only loophole. It was flawless and perfect.

This is a lore for Li Heng!

And he will announce the matter tomorrow, even if Wang Chong has great abilities, he is absolutely unable to stop this matter.

"However, although I'm not afraid of his investigation, I can't let him be like this. There are always rules in this deep palace. Eunuch Yin, you should warn him and let him understand who is the master of this deep palace."

The eldest prince sneered, and suddenly didn't turn his head back.

"The old slave leads the order."

There was silence behind him for a long time before a voice sounded in the darkness. Like a ghost, Eunuch Yin quickly left the hall without making a sound.

...

On the other side, neither Wang Chong nor Yang Zhao knew what was going on in the East Palace. The carriage rumbled all the way towards Xiao Yufei's Shuhua Palace.

With the guidance of Yang Zhao, a frequent visitor to the deep palace, he was familiar with the road all the way, and in just a moment, he arrived at Xiao Yufei's bedroom.

"Is this Xiao Yufei's palace?"

Through the carved windows of the carriage, Wang Chong saw a palace in the distance at a glance.

The originally resplendent palace was covered with white curtains, strings of paper money were floating on the ground, and there was an atmosphere of death and mourning everywhere.

Before Wang Chong and Yang Zhao got close, they heard bursts of mournful howling coming from inside, accompanied by the voice of "My Lady, My Lady".

"Hey, these are the maidservants who served in Shuhua Palace during Concubine Xiao Yu's lifetime. After Concubine Xiao Yu's death, I'm afraid these people have ill-fated fate. Either they were expelled from the palace, or they were demoted to do some hard work in Huanyifang and other places. Dirty work, or directly expelled into the cold palace."

The door of the carriage opened, Yang Zhao came out, looked at the Shuhua Palace in front of him, and couldn't help sighing.

Every empress in the palace has its own maids who are used to it. The maids in other palaces generally don't use it, especially Concubine Xiao Yu hanged herself. For some empresses in the palace, firstly, it was bad luck, and secondly, it meant that these maidservants did not take care of their services, which led to the accident of Concubine Xiao Yu's death, so naturally they would not want them.

There is another weight, Yang Zhao didn't say it, but Wang Chong also understood,

"If they are expelled from the palace, think of a way for me and give them some money. In addition, if possible, let them leave the palace as much as possible!"

Wang Chong said.
