Chapter 215 Your partner was assassinated and poisoned
The Queen opened her mouth in surprise, "Really?"
Gui Momo nodded and continued, "Yes, I just checked it out, and there is really nothing inside. Concubine Xian even held my hand and cried, asking me to ask you to help her check everyone in the harem to find out who stole her belongings!"
"Did she give you the account book? If you want to investigate this matter, you have to see what she lost." The queen curled her lips and smiled.
"No, your majesty. If you want to check, I will immediately send someone to Xianqing Palace to get it." Gui Momo's old face also showed a few wrinkles because of her smile.
"Go! Send more people over there and take the opportunity to make the matter bigger. This way, we can clear out the mess in the palace. This way, I can focus on planning for Hao'er." There was a gleam of cruelty in the queen's eyes.
"Okay, I'll do it right away!" Gui Momo took the order and left.
The queen stood up and walked towards the main hall of the Yangxin Palace. Seeing that Eunuch Liu was carefully wiping the body of the Emperor, she walked closer and said with a smile: "Eunuch Liu, I will serve the Emperor. You can go to the Imperial Study and watch. It will also be helpful to teach Prince Jing how to handle state affairs!"
Eunuch Liu stopped what he was doing, and was surprised in his heart, but he shook his head naturally, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I have always been an attendant to the emperor, and I am not qualified to teach His Royal Highness Prince Jing. I am only suitable to serve the emperor in front of his bed. Please understand!"
After saying this, he continued wiping the things in his hand. In fact, he was already very happy in his heart, mainly because he was happy that the regent chose the child of the former queen.
Seeing that he insisted, the Queen did not force him to do as she wished, so she sat on the armchair and watched him serve the Emperor.
"Eunuch Liu, you have been with the emperor for many years, you know him better. If he knew that Yang Er was the regent, would he blame me for not stopping it in time?"
Eunuch Liu kept moving, his face calm, "I feel that if His Majesty were to choose, he would definitely not choose His Royal Highness Prince Jing. The reason why it is like this today must be the result of the concerted consultation of all the adults! In fact, no matter who is the regent, I think it's all right. I believe that all of you are good monarchs who are dedicated to the country and the people!"
Seeing that she couldn't get the answer she wanted from Eunuch Liu, the Queen stopped asking and just quietly drank tea.
Time soon came to the sunset, and Mu Yanchen and Prince Jing returned to Prince Chen's Mansion together.
In the carriage, Prince Jing was a little confused and couldn't help asking, "Brother, why did you nominate me as regent today?"
"Of course it's because if this position falls into the hands of others, it will be even more disadvantageous to us. Now that our father is ill, everyone is vying to be the regent. They just want to take the opportunity to win over other forces, which will help them to have more inappropriate thoughts." Mu Yanchen deliberately made things vague, not wanting to make it too clear and make his brother afraid and worried.
Although Prince Jing appears unruly on the surface, his heart is as clear as a mirror. He did this before because he didn't want those with ulterior motives to think that he and his sister were the biggest obstacle to their progress. This way he could live a more peaceful life and protect his sister secretly.
"Brother, if I accept this position, I am worried that we will encounter more intrigues and deceptions in the future, which will put the three of us in greater danger!"
"We have to continue despite the danger. We can't let them take the initiative. This will help us protect ourselves!" Mu Yanchen certainly knew the pros and cons of this.
As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the carriage suddenly became solemn, and Prince Jing didn't know how to continue the conversation for a moment.
After a while, the carriage suddenly braked, and the sound of swords clashing could be heard outside. The two people in the carriage fell forward without paying attention. Mu Yanchen reacted in time, grabbed the edge of the carriage with one hand, and held Prince Jing with the other, "Let's go, follow me closely."
Mu Yanchen pulled him off the carriage, and immediately protected the man behind him, drawing the soft sword from his waist and fighting with the man in black.
Fortunately, the secret guards had been following them secretly, otherwise, the dozen or so men in black would not have been able to escape with just the three of them!
But those men in black were all very skilled and were not inferior to the secret guards. The fight was difficult to determine the winner. Gradually, while Mu Yanchen was protecting Prince Jing, he was wounded in the arm by a sword from a man in black.
When Prince Jing saw that the blood flowing out was black, he immediately snatched the sword from his hand and said anxiously: "Brother, stand behind me and don't use your internal force. I will take you away!"
At the same time, Ji Yunchu, who was grilling fish with the fourth princess by the pond, suddenly heard Momoda's anxious alarm: "Host, it's bad, your partner has been assassinated and poisoned, go save him quickly."
The stick in her hand suddenly fell into the fire, sparks flew everywhere, and the fourth princess was startled, "Yun Chu, where did you get burned?"
"I'm not burned, Princess. I just have a sudden stomachache. You continue to grill the fish here. I'm going to the bathroom first and will be back soon!"
After Ji Yunchu finished speaking, he didn't wait for anyone to respond and immediately stood up and ran towards Chenyuan.
The fourth princess saw her running so anxiously but couldn't express her concern, so she looked away and said, "Xiao Tao, bring a plate to put the fish on."
