Supreme Alchemy
144. The Palace is Shocked
The Eighth Prince and the Twelfth Prince are dead!
This news could not be concealed at all, and it swept across the entire palace like a hurricane.
As princes, although the Eighth Prince and the Twelfth Prince usually ate, drank and had fun, and could not achieve great things, they were princes after all.
They were killed in the palace, which was really shocking.
In an instant, the entire palace was shaken.
And all the concubines and eunuchs and palace maids also remembered a name deeply:
The Ninth Prince!
He was once called a waste and suffered humiliation, but this time, he returned strongly and killed the two princes.
For a time, the entire palace was terrified.
Jingyang Palace.
The biological mother of the Eighth Prince, Concubine Wen, lived here.
When she heard the bad news, she fainted directly.
When she woke up, she cried and made a fuss, kept shouting for injustice, and went to the imperial study where Emperor Wu was as soon as possible.
She knelt outside the imperial study for a whole day and night, and the cold winter snow buried her, but she still kept begging His Majesty to bring the murderer to justice.
The Yanxia Palace was where the twelfth prince, Concubine Xia, lived.
Concubine Xia was already weak and sickly, and she fell ill after hearing the bad news.
However, a blood letter was sent outside the imperial study.
The glaring scarlet blood letter was particularly eye-catching in the white winter snow.
The whole blood letter had only one meaning.
Swear to bury the ninth prince with him!
The actions of Concubine Wen and Concubine Xia once again added fuel to the fire.
It completely ignited this matter.
The raging fire spread throughout the palace, and everyone was in danger and terrified.
However, the imperial study was extremely quiet.
Whether Concubine Wen knelt on the ground and refused to get up, or Concubine Xia presented a blood letter, Emperor Wu did not accept it.
Such an attitude made everyone puzzled.
Is His Majesty going to protect His Majesty the Ninth Prince?
But no one dared to talk about His Majesty.
Finally.
An imperial decree was issued in the imperial study.
"No one is allowed to discuss this matter anymore!"
The emperor ordered, and everyone listened.
For a moment, no one in the entire palace dared to discuss this matter, and all the gossip was annihilated.
Working in the palace, whether it was the imperial guards, eunuchs, or even other concubines, they all knew the principle of being cautious.
However, this matter gave everyone a signal.
That is, His Majesty does not intend to pursue this matter.
Or rather, he does not intend to pursue this matter now.
Suddenly, everyone's eyes turned to Qingyuan Palace.
Xiao Changfeng, who had not returned for three years, stirred up the palace as soon as he came back.
...
Fengyi Palace, the most honorable place in the entire harem.
Because this is the residence of the Queen.
There is a phoenix coming, and the mother is the world. This is the Queen.
At this time, Concubine Wen and Concubine Xia knelt on the ground, crying hoarsely.
"Empress, you must make a decision for us. My Yun'er can't die in vain!"
Concubine Wen was determined and kowtowed directly at this moment, and her forehead was bleeding on the bluestone slab.
But she didn't care at all. Her beautiful eyes, with tears in them, looked closely at the Empress in front of her.
"Empress, your Majesty's attitude is unclear this time, and he is suspected of shielding the murderer, but my Mu'er died tragically, with her limbs broken. I don't want anything, I just ask you to make a decision for us!"
Concubine Xia was weak, and even with makeup on, she was still pale and terribly pale.
She lay directly on the ground, humble to the extreme.
Although she was weak, her heart was extremely firm.
She wanted to chop the murderer into pieces immediately.
Now that his Majesty's attitude was ambiguous and he had issued an order, they had no one to rely on, so they had to come to find the Empress.
If His Majesty is the golden dragon that dominates the world in the palace, then the Empress is the golden phoenix that is rich and gorgeous.
Now that His Majesty's way is blocked, they can only beg the Empress.
"You two are both miserable people. The ground is cold. Stop kneeling and get up!"
A voice with the unique majesty of the royal family and the gentleness of women sounded.
"Thank you for your gift, Your Majesty!"
Hearing this, Concubine Wen and Concubine Xia knew the temper of the Empress, and they immediately stood up respectfully, but still lowered their heads.
The Empress is an extremely beautiful woman.
While speaking, the Danfeng Chaoyang Golden Step-shaking on her head did not move at all, and under her two curved eyebrows were a pair of dark eyes, with no expression.
There was a hint of sadness on her delicate face, and she was wearing a soft robe embroidered with red gold.
However, the Empress was indeed pregnant, and her lower abdomen was bulging, which was quite obvious.
At this moment, she was lying on a phoenix-carved rocking chair made of sandalwood, with a well-dressed maid behind her rocking slightly.
"Although Yun'er and Mu'er were a little naughty, they are my royal blood after all. Their death makes me very sad."
The Queen reached out and took a plum, put it in her mouth and chewed it carefully.
The sour taste went down her throat and into her stomach, and then she continued to speak.
"But His Majesty has already issued an order on this matter, and I am also powerless."
The Queen's voice sounded faintly, neither hurried nor slow.
However, Concubine Wen and Concubine Xia reacted quickly.
"Queen, I only have Yun'er as my flesh and blood. Now I am sending my son away. I am heartbroken and can't suppress it. I only ask the Queen to be fair. From now on, my father and I will follow your lead!"
Concubine Wen spoke sadly, the pain of losing her son made her willing to do anything.
Concubine Wen's father was the official minister of the dynasty, and these words were a sign of loyalty to the empress.
Concubine Xia's father was also an important member of the party, and Concubine Xia immediately spoke quickly.
"I know that you are grieving for the loss of your son. Alas, this matter comes from the harem after all. As the master of the harem, I have my own faults for lax discipline. If I don't express my feelings, I am afraid that I will not be able to sit on the throne of the queen for a long time. !”
The queen spoke softly, feeling sad and self-pitying.
"Forget it, since the two sisters are so determined, I will step in to deal with it. As for His Majesty, you don't have to worry, I will explain it myself!"
The Queen smiled sweetly, even in the coldest month of winter, she still gave people a bright and spring-like feeling.
"I heard that the Ninth Prince forced his way into the palace gate and now committed a major crime. It seems that he has recovered his martial arts skills. If he can lie dormant and gather strength to move, I may still look at him squarely. "
"It's a pity that he is young and energetic and does not understand the truth that a tree that is beautiful in the forest will be destroyed by the wind."
The empress stood up from the phoenix rocking chair and looked at the respectful Concubine Wen and Concubine Xia.
"Don't worry, two sisters, I will send the Demon Spirit Master to take action this time. The Ninth Prince will definitely not be able to escape!"
Just then the Demon Spirit Master reported that the Lu family also asked him to take action against Xiao Changfeng.
Kill two birds with one stone!
"Master of Demonic Spirits!"
After hearing the Queen's words, Concubine Wen and Concubine Xia suddenly raised their heads, showing surprise.
If the Demon Spirit Master takes action, they will indeed be able to feel at ease.
The Empress smiled slightly, her red phoenix eyes sparkling with brilliance.
"You go back first, he will definitely die tonight!"
