Chapter 80 The Assassin Arrested
"Second brother is right, Concubine Rong, how do you explain the clothes?"

"Your Majesty... my concubine..." Concubine Rong's eyes were full of despair, she had been tainted with all kinds of misery in the harem for a long time, she was not stupid, if she couldn't explain to everyone, she might be doomed.

Her red eyes swept around, and finally fell on a maid who dared not look at her, "Did you bring the clothes in?"

This is her personal maid, Yunyue. She clearly let her take care of the clothes that she took off, so how could she appear in the room again.

Suddenly being pointed out by her master, Yunyue fell to her knees with a thud, and said in awe and fear, "Your servant is wronged, I have never touched this clothes!"

Jiang Yue quickly grasped the key points in the other party's words, "You haven't moved, have you seen that?"

"Slave... Slave..." Yunyue's entire body was trembling slightly, obviously extremely frightened.

"Say..." The emperor's cold voice finally broke through her last line of defense, and the tears on Yunyue's face burst into tears, "Your majesty, this servant knows it's wrong, but this servant really didn't do anything, they are all masters, Everything is done by my master..."

"What the hell is going on!" The emperor flicked his sleeve fiercely, and the last bit of patience towards Concubine Rong was exhausted in his eyes.

"Your maidservant must know everything, but please let the servant's family go unnoticed." Her eyes swept over Chu Nanxiao without leaving a trace, and she let go of the last trace of worry in her heart after seeing the other party nodding slightly.

Just as the emperor was about to say something, he was interrupted by Chu Nanxiao.

"Since this servant girl is willing to say it, the emperor might as well agree to it."

Concubine Rong's bad premonition is getting stronger and stronger, and it's too late to stop it, "Your Majesty, don't listen to the other party's nonsense, Your Majesty..."

"Shut up..." The emperor glanced at Concubine Rong coldly, and then said to the servant girl Yunyue. "Go on, if you can tell the truth, I promise you, I will spare your family's life."

Yunyue kowtowed gratefully. In fact, if Chu Nanxiao hadn't found her suddenly and pointed out all the evidence of her being with Concubine Rong, she would not have betrayed her master.

But if she doesn't do this, when everything is exposed, it will be the crime of implicating the nine clans. Trading her own life for the safety of her family is the condition of her deal with Chu Nanxiao.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, my master has always been dissatisfied with the princess of Tianchu Kingdom who married into the Three Princes' Mansion, who is now the Third Princess, but suffers from not having the opportunity to get close to her."

"Shut up, you're talking nonsense..." Concubine Rong's eyes were about to burst, and she struggled to cover Yunyue's mouth, but was firmly held down by the guards.

"Gag her mouth!" Following the emperor's order, Concubine Rong could no longer utter a sound, and could only helplessly watch her most trusted servant girl tell everything.

Chu Huafeng asked suspiciously, "Why is Concubine Rong dissatisfied with the third concubine?"

This happens to be what other people want to know.

Yunyue continued, "My master has admired the Third Prince for a long time, but she was forced into the palace by her family. She was unwilling. This time the Third Princess entered the palace, and she had evil thoughts..."

Before the maid finished speaking, Jiang Yue keenly noticed that the atmosphere of the whole room had changed.

Oh my god, my favorite concubine is thinking of someone else, it's no wonder the emperor's complexion is good-looking, and the third prince is caught in the middle, so his complexion must not be much better.

The two brothers will definitely have a rift because of this matter. Is this little maid putting the two big guys together?Could it be that the legendary death does not make you feel better? ? ?
Chu Nanxiao's dark eyes suddenly deepened, he never thought that before Yunyue died, she would cause such a big trouble for herself.

Tears welled up on Yunyue's face, she didn't feel that she had made a mistake in what she said, and she continued to speak as if she couldn't feel the change in air pressure.

"So, there was the scene last night..."

"Who did it?" Chu Huafeng smiled, looking in a good mood.

Just as Yunyue was about to identify her, a guard at the back of the crowd backed up and wanted to leave the place, but was caught by Chu Nanxiao, who was quick-eyed and quick-handed. After struggling for a moment, the man broke his arm, and the screams resounded instantly.

"Where are you going?" Chu Nan Xiao Yinyi asked.

The other party broke out in a cold sweat and didn't speak for a long time.

Fortunately, Yunyue identified it in time, "It is him, he is the assassin who assassinated the third princess, and there is a wound on his left arm, which is exactly the same as the torn clothes."

"Come on, take it down for me!" With the emperor's order, the guards quickly controlled the assassin, and everyone found a wound on his arm.

The other party was also considered smart, but after the assassination, he pretended to be a bodyguard and mixed in the crowd. In other words, he was originally a member of the palace guards. As for why he and Concubine Rong hurt Jiang Yue together, this is unknown.

"Now that things have happened, what else do you have to say?" The emperor was very disappointed with Concubine Rong.

The latter collapsed to the ground in despair, and laughed frantically, "It's over, everything is over!"

"Come here, imprison Yunyue and the assassin together, choose a day to kill Concubine Rong."

"Yes!" The guard responded loudly.

Looking at Concubine Rong who was kidnapped, Jiang Yue experienced the cruelty of the deep palace for the first time. Just like the former said, she will spend her whole life in the deep cold palace, and she will never see the sun again. .

I don't know if it was her illusion, but she seemed to see a weird and gloomy smile in Yunyue's eyes, and that horrifying feeling pierced her mind, making her shiver suddenly.

"I wonder if the third brother is still satisfied?" The emotion in the emperor's eyes dissipated, and there was no joy or anger in his flat voice, but Jiang Yue clearly sensed the sarcasm.

Chu Nanxiao cupped his hands, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for making decisions for my wife!"

"I still have something to do!" The emperor didn't want to stay longer for a moment, but his attitude towards Chu Nanxiao obviously changed a little. His woman likes other men, and it would be difficult for anyone to swallow this breath, but he is the king of a country. host.

Chu Nanxiao nodded, "Congratulations to the emperor!"

Jiang Yue and Chu Huafeng also saluted.

"Second brother, do you have anything else to do?" Seeing that Chu Huafeng was not leaving, Chu Nanxiao asked with a frown.

The smile on the latter's face was elegant, "Without the help of my third brother, I'm afraid I won't be able to walk alone." Juan'er was not here, and it was difficult for this wooden wheelchair to move by itself, and it still needed someone to push it.

Chu Nanxiao was quite patient, "What the second brother said is, since that's the case, madam, I will send the second brother away first, and we will discuss the next thing in private."

Jiang Yue, "???" What do Chu Nanxiao and himself have to say?

However, the other party had no intention of solving her question at all, and pushed Chu Huafeng out the door. Jiang Yue had no choice but to let Xia Zhu take her back first.

On the other side of the road.

Two handsome men with different styles and temperaments walked on the road, which naturally attracted the attention of many people in the palace.

Chu Nanxiao said, "Why did the second brother think of coming to the palace today?" There was a hint of doubt in it.

Chu Huafeng chuckled, and said as usual, "Yesterday I brought some delicious food to visit the Empress Dowager. I happened to meet the Third Princess. Today I heard that she was assassinated and almost lost her life. Naturally, I wanted to come and see."

"Oh, that's thanks to the second brother for thinking about it."

Chu Nanxiao shook his head, "It should be!"

Since then, the two brothers have not spoken a word.

And Jiang Yue waited anxiously for a long time, but she didn't wait for Chu Nanxiao's arrival. When she came back from the queen mother, she sat on the bed and breathed a sigh of relief. Sure enough, she was thinking too much!

Until the window rang slightly at night, when Jiang Yue thought something was going to happen again, he saw Chu Nanxiao's face.

Seeing the majestic Third Prince jumping in through the window in the middle of the night, she was stunned.
