Chapter five hundred and fortieth IX

Mrs. Chen looked frightened. She knew what this meant. If someone dared to kill you in front of the guard at the palace gate, it would be no different from pinching an ant to death.

Because the guards at the gate of the palace just looked in shock, no one dared to come forward to stop them. Then, it proves that the identity of these people is something that the guards cannot afford to provoke.

Mrs. Chen and her daughter were covered with their mouths and noses and dragged away. A weak woman, without the power to tie a chicken, was naturally no match for these people.

When Mrs. Chen was dragged to the corner, the officials who went to court also came out one after another.

The one who captured their mother and daughter was actually the eunuch in the palace. Mrs. Chen's heart was pounding. She knew that the person the prince killed was the father-in-law of the current dynasty, the biological father of Concubine Tian.

Then the person who caught him was probably the one who was Concubine Tian. Since it was in their hands, the lives of his mother and daughter were not guaranteed.

These eunuchs grabbed themselves and walked over to a middle-aged old palace maid. The old palace maid looked at Mrs. Chen and her daughter and asked, "Are you the widow of Chen Muzhi? Is the prince killed Tian Hongyu for you?"

It was useless. At this time, the officials had dispersed one after another. It was too late for Mrs. Chen to seek justice. She looked at the palace maid in front of her and begged: "My daughter is young and ignorant. Please give her mercy and let her go. If you want to kill me, just kill me."

Xiao Shishi was covered with her mouth and kicked her legs, and she whined: "Mom, mom..."

The middle-aged palace maid saw the horror on her face, so she winked at the eunuchs beside her. Several eunuchs who were holding Mrs. Chen and her daughter actually let go of their hands. Xiao Shishi suddenly threw herself into her mother's arms: "Mom, let's die together if we want to die."

Mrs. Chen hugged her daughter tightly and looked at the other party in horror. The old palace maid said, "Don't be afraid, I'm not here to kill you. Do you know that if you do this, you will kill the prince."

Mrs. Chen was stunned. She never expected that the other party would say this. She hesitated for a moment. The old palace maid no longer concealed it and showed her identity: "I am the person next to Empress Yi'an, and I am here to save you. Do you know that when you make such a fuss just now, not only will your lives be lost, but even the prince will be implicated by you."

Queen Yi'an Zhang Yan?

That's right, the person who came was Ling Fei from Shangyi Bureau, the old palace maid next to Empress Yi'an. She saved Douhua'er's life at the beginning.

The other party revealed his identity, and Mrs. Chen let down most of her heart. As long as she was not the Concubine Tian, ​​it would be fine. It was just that there was something unknown, so why did she infringe on the prince and implicate the prince?

Ling Fei naturally didn't want to explain so much to her, but just ordered the two eunuchs: "You two, escort Mrs. Chen back to Huajiazhuang."

The two eunuchs responded, and they had already prepared the carriage. Mrs. Chen was still waiting to ask again, and Ling Fei waved her hand: "You go back, I really want to be good for the prince. Don't get involved in the prince's affairs."

After all, Mrs. Chen has seen the world, and she also knows that she is a minority girl after all. And what this old palace maid said is probably true. At that moment, she stopped talking and followed the two eunuchs onto the carriage.

Ling Fei finally breathed a sigh of relief when she watched the carriage go away. Then, she came to the palace gate.

Several guards were respectful to the last palace fighting king. Ling Fei said coldly: "No word must be revealed in the matter just now, especially to Concubine Tian, ​​otherwise Empress Yian would not spare you, have you heard it clearly?"

The guards were smart, and one of the little leaders hurriedly bowed: "Don't worry, aunt, the little people just saw nothing."

Only by closing your mouth tightly can you live for a long time. Everyone in the palace knows this truth. Ling Fei didn't say anything at the moment. She glanced at the guards coldly, and then walked towards the Cining Palace.

In the corner of the palace wall, a little eunuch suddenly flashed out. It was Zhu Cilang's tyrant descendants Wangcai.

Sun Wangcai bowed to Ling Fei and said, "Thank you, Aunt Ling, for your help."

Ling Fei said "Hmm": "How is the prince?"

Wangcai said respectfully: "When I say to my aunt, the prince is very good. The prince also asked Aunt Ling to tell Empress Yi'an that his affairs are not to be cared about, and the prince has his own plans."

Ling Fei was stunned: "Why, so, today the court will issue an order to depose the crown prince. Your Highness has known about this long ago?"

Wangcai didn't say anything, but just gave Ling Fei another tribute. Ling Fei coughed lightly, knowing that she shouldn't ask more questions, and nodded slightly to Wangcai. No one was around, so Wangcai quickly ran away.

Looking at Wangcai's back as he was leaving, Ling Fei couldn't help but sigh inwardly: Young people are terrifying.

That's right, Zhu Cilang was imprisoned in Zhongcui Palace and was not allowed to leave without a step. He knew that Mrs. Shen would inevitably cause trouble, so he asked Wangcai to inform Niang Yi'an and ask her to help her.

Only then did Empress Yian send Ling Fei out and save the lives of Mrs. Shen and her daughter. Otherwise, the two of them would have complained about Zhu Cilang outside the palace gate, which would only cause more trouble.

When the Crown Prince was deposed, Emperor Chongzhen personally said that the Crown Prince killed someone for anger for a woman. However, no one could see him with his own eyes, and the Jinyiwei suppressed the case again.

If Mrs. Shen comes out to complain about justice at this time, she and her daughter will definitely be the target of public criticism. They will be scolded by the world as a disaster. Not only will her mother and daughter lose their lives, Zhu Cilang will also be implicated again.

Mrs. Shen naturally doesn't understand these political contests in the court. It is the best situation if she doesn't show up at this time, and it's easier for her to make things worse when she comes forward.

However, the young eunuch of Zhongcui Palace said that the deposed crown prince's imperial edict seemed to be within Zhu Cixuan's expectations. He also made Queen Yi'an not have to worry about this. Could it be that the crown prince himself had other plans?

But it was public to be deposed. Could it be that things would turn around? Ling Fei, who thought he could not see through everything, could not see through it. She couldn't help but admire Zhu Cilang, indeed, is a young man.

Wangcai returned to Zhongcui Palace like a thief. The outside of Zhongcui Palace was already full of palace guards. At this time, Zhu Cilang completely lost his freedom.

Empress Zhou cried sadly in Kunning Palace, and Empress Yi'an was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan in Cining Palace. The martial law of Zhongcui Palace was not allowed to be visited without Chongzhen's imperial edict.

At night, Emperor Chongzhen came.

Emperor Chongzhen did not summon him, but he only brought Wang Chengen and the others beside him. Outside the Zhongcui Palace, a group of guards knelt in a dark way.

Emperor Chongzhen carried his hands on his back and glanced at Zhong Cuigong, who was now almost imprisoned, and sighed and followed him in.

Zhu Cilang finally had the leisure to read. There was a plate of melon seeds on his table, and the candlelight was so exciting. Even Emperor Chongzhen came in, Zhu Cilang did not notice it.

Emperor Chongzhen did not alarm the people from Zhong Cuigong. After he walked into the study for a while, Zhu Cilang only discovered him when he looked up.

Seeing the old father with a gloomy face, Zhu Cilang smiled instead: "Father."

"Is it worth it for you to do this?" Chongzhen's tone was cold.

Zhu Cilang put away his smile, put down the book in his hand, and then knelt on the ground and raised his head: "Father, if the son minister does not overthrow Tian Hongyu, he will not be able to tear open the gaps of corrupt officials in the capital."
