Suddenly, the sixth princess asked nervously: "Brother emperor, have something happened to them?"

Hearing this, Xi Yun shook his head, "This slave and maidservant is not clear, but I heard that the emperor has suffered some injuries. Now all the imperial doctors have gone to the emperor's place, and have not heard the news that the prince was injured.

Speaking of this, she suddenly said seriously: "I heard that the king of Zhennan was seriously injured in order to save the emperor, and almost couldn't come back!"

Liu Yin frowned and continued to hold her head in deep thought. She didn't want to care about anything, but she didn't expect that this kind of thing would happen to her. Even if she hated the Liu family, it wouldn't help to kill her, her father and the queen. It is the pillar of the Liu family. It would be too fussy to deploy such a big deal to kill himself. The other party must have other goals.

Of course, this does not rule out the possibility that the Zhennan King will direct and act by himself. At this time, he will pretend to be loyal to save the emperor. If he didn't know that he was going to rebel, Liu Yin would almost believe it.

For some reason, she suddenly thought of a possibility, could it be that the Zhennan King did both, sending someone to kill the emperor while sending someone to kill herself, because she died, Princess Qiyang would have a chance to become a princess, but this is also No, if the emperor is dead, the prince will also ascend to the throne. This prince has been in charge of the court for many years. Even if the emperor is dead, the court will not be in chaos unless the other party has some other side to murder the prince.

The more he thinks about it, the more terrifying, Liu Yin now understands her father's feelings. It's useless to retreat in his position, because it has become a thorn in the eyes of others and can only move up the wind.

"Cousin, don't worry. Since there is no news of the emperor's brother being injured, the emperor must be fine." The sixth princess thought she was still worried and couldn't help but comfort.

After a moment of silence, Liu Yin suddenly stood up and was about to go out to have a look, but as soon as he left the camp, he was suddenly stopped by a few imperial soldiers, who immediately said respectfully: "His Royal Highness asked the prince not to go out in the tent."

After a pause, Liu Yin still turned around and went back to the camp. She naturally knew that the other party was doing it for her own good. After all, the scene in the forest was still vivid in my eyes. It can be seen that the outside of the palace is indeed not. Security, just thinking of the other party's previous meaning, seems to have expected danger outside the palace.

Liu Yin didn’t understand what the prince was thinking. She wanted to ask but didn’t dare to ask. She didn’t know what the other person thought about herself. If it was just because she was his prince, why did she always protect her in the forest before? Although the other party usually likes to teach others, he cares about her. Even if she keeps saying that she is a spy, she has never really guarded herself, even when she read Zhezi.

Liu Yin never dared to have any narcissistic thoughts. Perhaps, it was just because he had been intimate with him, and the other party subconsciously defended himself.

When he couldn't get out of the camp, only Xi Yun brought back news from time to time, until he heard that the emperor had already returned to Beijing with the prince and others, and the others would slowly follow, obviously for fear of another accident.

Unexpectedly, the emperor was about to return to Beijing so soon. It was obvious that the injuries were not serious, and the other party took away more than half of the Imperial Forest Army, but Zhang Mo stayed and escorted them back to Beijing.

Packed up things, it was almost evening when the large group returned to the capital. When they returned to the East Palace, Liu Yin wanted to go to the prince to inquire about the situation, but the people underneath said that the prince was still working in the palace. come back.

If something like this happened, there must be a lot of chaos in the palace. There will be another investigation tomorrow, and Liu Yin will not wait any longer. Today, she really scared her, and she went back to bed early to rest after bathing.

In the middle of the night, the entire palace was shrouded in darkness, and the quiet atmosphere was like the tranquility before the storm, suppressed in everyone's heart.

There was still a long candle in the Changchun Palace, and the queen was playing alone, looking at the chessboard with an obscure and obscure expression.

There was a long candle burning in the hall, and Hong Xing walked in from outside the hall looking around, followed by her, and said, "The letter has been sent out."

Hearing that, the queen only slowly put down Baizi, her beautiful and dignified face was calm and waveless, and the fine lines at the corners of her eyes were so clear under the candlelight that she was no longer young.

"Assassination? What do you think?" Her tone didn't fluctuate.

Hong Xing lowered her head and condensed her eyebrows for a while, "The slave and maid thought this was quite strange. If you want to harm the emperor, why should you send someone to assassinate the prince, and you can also know the route of your highness and others? It is very, unless it is those assassins who have been following His Highness, but with the detection ability of General Liu and others, it is impossible to have never discovered it, unless..."

"Unless someone whistleblower." The queen chuckled.

Another black piece fell on the chessboard, and Hong Xing immediately filled her with a cup of hot tea, and said earnestly: "I heard that the king of Zhennan is also with His Royal Highness. Did the empress mean the hand of the King of Zhennan?"

Caressing the tea lid, the queen slowly lowered her eyes, "Do you remember the queen first."

The sudden words made Hong Xing stunned. She didn't seem to expect that she would mention it again, and she nodded immediately, "The first queen is a different temperament, and she has never been fighting for it. When it was difficult to give birth, the emperor said that she had taken care of her. , It happened that the queen had to keep her young, but fortunately, the emperor's prince was raised by the empress."

"Dystocia?"

The queen suddenly sneered, "You also entered the palace with this palace. To this day, do you still believe in coincidences in this palace?"

Hong Xing's expression gradually changed, "The slave servant indeed suspected Consort De, but there has been no evidence."

"Evidence? The least valuable thing in this palace is the evidence." The queen sipped a sip of tea, her expression unclear, "She did indeed do this, but she admitted it that day. People are about to die, and I believe it. She once."

Hearing that, Hong Xing was a little surprised. I didn’t expect it to be the hand of Concubine De, but it was. The eldest prince was just born. If the queen gave birth to an heir, he must be the prince. But even without the prince, it’s difficult for the moral concubine to guarantee. Are there no other princes in the palace?

"Do you remember how the Fang family fell?" The queen said leisurely.

Speaking of this, Hong Xing immediately replied in earnest: "The slave-maid remembers that the Fang family was no better than the Liu family. The master also had a lot of disputes with Master Fang, but the emperor always favored the Fang family, but waited for the queen to pass away. After that, the Fang family was not as good as one day for a year. If it weren't for the help of the prince, he would fall out of the four great families."

Hearing her words, the queen gradually became more solemn, and she looked at the chess game in front of her with certainty, "There are some things that I have never understood, but now I don't understand it when I think about it, but I just don't dare to understand, I hope it's still too late."

——

Xu went to bed early, and Liu Yinsi woke up the next day, with the coolness of autumn outside, and the maids were cleaning the fallen leaves in the courtyard, whispering in twos and threes from time to time.

When combing her hair, Liu Yin noticed that Xiyun was always eager to talk and stopped. She glanced at the other palace ladies, who immediately retreated out of interest. Seeing that Mother Liu was not there, Liu Yin looked at her and asked. Said: "What happened?"

Could it be that the murderer was caught?

Xiyun took a step back holding the comb, looked down her head with a weird expression, and then hesitated, "It's...that the slave servant heard that the assassination was handed over to Prime Minister Lu for investigation this morning, but the young master I was involved in a book saying that the defense of Xishan was the responsibility of the young master. If this happened, the young master could not escape the blame. Although the emperor believed the young master, but the assassination, the young master was indeed responsible, and has now been taken. Dali Temple assisted in the investigation."

After speaking, Xiyun immediately said seriously: "However, the emperor still believes in the eldest master. Even if he enters the Dali Temple to investigate, it will definitely be fine in the end."

Her palms tightened, and Liu Yin suddenly closed her eyes, only to feel that the blood in her body was rolling. Her elder brother was the pillar of the Liu family’s future. If something happened at this time, the Liu family would be half down. Then the Lu family and their Liu family have always been. The enemy, what is the meaning of the emperor's move is obvious!

"His Royal Highness is back?" she asked suddenly.

Xiyun nodded immediately, "His Royal Highness came back from the early morning, and he should still be in the study now."

Regardless of having breakfast, Liu Yin immediately got up and walked outside the house. He happened to bump into the mother Liu who had come back, without saying anything, and went straight to the study.

She has too many questions, and she can pretend to be deaf and dumb, but her elder brother can’t do this. This matter is clearly premeditated. No matter how well prepared it is, it’s useless. If it’s someone else, it’s horrible. The Lu family tortured her elder brother, and she panicked when she thought of this.

All the way to the outside of the study, Xiao Luzi saw her coming from a distance, and immediately greeted her, "The slave has seen the princess, and his Royal Highness has ordered no one to disturb, or... you still come later?"

Liu Yin glanced at him and kept walking, "Don't worry, I'll just say that I made it hard by myself and won't hurt you."

Seeing that the study door had been pushed open by her, Xiao Luzi's face suddenly became bitter, how can she not hurt herself?

He knew why the princess came, but the fact that General Liu came is complicated. Since Xishan came back yesterday, His Royal Highness has never rested until now. Not only has the floods in the south of the Yangtze River become more and more serious, but now General Liu has happened again. How can Your Highness not be busy? .

Pushing the door open, Liu Yin looked inside, and saw a familiar figure sitting in front of the desk. Suddenly remembering that the other party hadn't returned all night, she didn't know if she had a rest, she closed the door and walked over immediately.

"Brother Prince... was there a rest last night?" She asked softly.

The man looked at the document without raising his head, but he gave an "um" sound.

Seeing this, Liu Yin hesitated, then took a deep breath, and slowly came to the desk, with a trace of worry flashing on his face, "I...Is there something wrong with my brother?"

The man looked down at Zhezi, his expression was strict, and he didn't say anything. He just picked up a pen to comment on it, and understood that she would only come to herself because of the Liu family.

"His Royal Highness has also seen what happened yesterday. The assassin came here prepared, and I can't blame my elder brother at all. Of course, I am not trying to excuse elder brother. Normal investigation is naturally necessary, but I am worried about Prime Minister Lu, he It has always been Daddy's enemy. What if he avenges his eldest brother and punishes him?" Liu Yin said, the less he dared to think.

Listening to the chattering sound, the man suddenly raised his hand and rubbed his forehead, still without any emotion on the angular outline.

"Then what do you want to be lonely?" His voice was calm.

Hearing this, Liu Yin immediately took a few steps forward, and the little hand took his arm, and said seriously: "His Royal Highness... please take care of my eldest brother and don't let him be tortured."

When the words fell, the whole study suddenly fell silent, and Liu Yin stood there a little nervously. For some reason, she suddenly felt that she was a little too much. There seemed to be no reason for others to help herself, so she slowly let go of his arm for a while.

As soon as he raised his eyes, Qin Yan looked at her like a torch, with a low voice, "Is there only Liu Family in your heart."

With eyes facing each other, Liu Yin's breath was choked, his eyes dodge a little, and he forgot to answer.

"Whether there is a suspect Dali Temple will investigate it clearly. If this process is eliminated because of a lone word, what are the rules from now on?" His voice was slightly cold.

The atmosphere in the room gradually became serious, Liu Yin slowly lowered his head, her pink lips pressed tightly, her expression was a bit complicated for a time.

Looking at the person in front of him, Qin Yan frowned slightly, put down the official document in his hand, and opened his thin lips slightly, "The husband on your mouth has ever been in your heart."
