Chu Yunyi stretched out his hand, his hands trembled so much that he could hardly hold Gu Qingqiu's hand.

He exhausted all his strength, barely touched Gu Qingqiu: "What did you do to me?"

At this moment, Chu Yunyi's voice was full of resentment, and he stared at Gu Qingqiu with the desire to swallow Gu Qingqiu alive.

However, Gu Qingqiu will never be the same again, because his words or a look in his eyes are painful: "Your Highness, don't worry, this will only make you suffer less."

Gu Qingqiu even showed a smile. She gently stroked Chu Yunyi's cheek, and said warmly: "After all, I still have you in my heart. This bowl of medicine can make your waking time shorter in the future."

"As long as you don't know the environment you are in, won't you be able to relax more?" After Gu Qingqiu said this lightly, he patted Chu Yunyi's face and turned to go out.

Chu Yunyi eagerly wanted to grab her, but fell off the bed because he lost his strength.

This sound was very ear-piercing in the quiet bedroom, Chu Yunyi opened his eyes wide open, watching Gu Qingqiu's back going away.

To this day, he still can't understand why Gu Qingqiu would harm himself.

He tolerated Gu Qingqiu in every possible way, but he just wanted her to give up the position of crown princess, and she actually did this to him!Where did that gentle, caring, considerate and kind Gu Qingqiu go?

After leaving the dormitory, Gu Qingqiu just stopped.

She gasped for breath, and all the hatred and tears welled up in her eyes.

"Go and tell the queen mother that the prince is getting worse." Gu Qingqiu lowered his eyes and said softly, "please come and accompany the prince more often, the prince wants to see her."

Ban Xia knew that Gu Qingqiu was going to attack the Queen Mother.

She clenched her hands secretly, and responded softly: "Your servant will do it now."

……

The busiest place in the capital is Suzaku Street.

This street is full of teahouses and restaurants, and every teahouse and restaurant is full of people.

Places like tea houses and restaurants have always been places where people gossip.

But this time, it was the twenty people who were found from the Third Prince's Mansion earlier that everyone was talking about.

"It's really strange. There are old and young, men and women. What kind of kidnappers are there to recruit so many people?"

"The strangest thing is that these people were found from the third prince's mansion? That's where the prince lives today. I heard that Mr. Zhuang who was captured is also the prince's staff!"

"In this way, it seems that His Highness the Crown Prince is most likely to kidnap those people... But what does His Highness the Crown Prince want these people to do?"

Such questions surfaced in everyone's mind.

This is indeed a strange thing, the crown prince is so honorable and has everything, why would he abduct so many people?Since ancient times, if these dignitaries had any dirty thoughts, they would mostly attack young boys and girls, but among the twenty or so people, there were not only burly men, but also gray-haired old women. .

At this time, the person sitting in the most remote corner whispered to the man beside him: "I have some guesses about the prince's plan."

"Do you know a kind of magic? According to rumors, this magic can make people live forever, but if you want to practice magic, you must use people to test it! Otherwise, how will you know whether the magic is successful or not? "

His voice was low, but loud enough for those at the next table to hear.

The tea house is not a place where secrets can be hidden. This opening was heard by other people. As a result, everyone talked about it.

It has to be said that after all the speculations have been overturned, this statement is indeed the most appropriate.

"Sorcery? I remember it clearly. Didn't our emperor claim to have the law of immortality? Could it be that the emperor's immortality is also obtained by magic?"

"Then how many people will he kidnap? I heard from the son of my uncle's second cousin that the emperor who is over fifty now looks like a young man in his twenties!"

"No wonder even the crown prince wants to use such magic!"

Everyone is discussing, and the matter has been determined.

The man who spoke first had already disappeared in the crowd, and everyone was talking about it, not even noticing who the news came from first.

The man walked out of the restaurant quickly, followed by several people.

His movements were extremely fast, and he threw everyone away in a blink of an eye, and walked into an alley alone.

And here, someone has already been waiting for his arrival.

"How is it going?" Gu Ning looked at the man in front of him and asked softly.

Hearing this, the man opened his mouth quickly, the voice in his mouth was exactly the same as Yue Rong's, it was Yue Rong's disguise.

"According to your orders, the princess, people have already guessed this matter to the emperor, but no matter how big the public anger is, they may not be able to make waves." Yue Rong was a little worried, "According to the views of the subordinates, it is better to send Tell the ministers all these things."

Gu Ning heard Yue Rong's words, and raised her beautiful eyes: "Yue Rong, you are so naive."

"What choice do you think those ministers will make after knowing the secret of the emperor's immortality?" Gu Ning said lightly, "Are they outraged to overthrow the emperor, or do they want to follow the emperor? Obtain the secret method of immortality?"

In an instant, Yue Rong's body became stiff.

He raised his head and said with some difficulty, "I'm afraid...I'm afraid it will be the second choice."

What kind of emperor there will be what kind of ministers. It is true that among the courtiers, there are Qingliu like Pei Anlin and Master Huang, who are dedicated to doing things for the state of Chu, but there are also families like the Jiang family and the Song family who put all their minds on it. Above the glory of the family, she only thinks about power and wealth.

Yue Rong closed his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "What the princess said is absolutely true, and this subordinate knows it's wrong."

"Actually, you are right." Gu Ning said quietly, "You just think too much about them."

"You did a good job with today's matter. When the others come back, you must make it clear to them that once today is over, you must change to a teahouse tomorrow. You must not be noticed that someone is behind your back."

Listening to Gu Ning's instructions, Yue Rong nodded solemnly: "The subordinates will keep it in mind, the Princess can rest assured."

Yellow House.

Mrs. Huang sent away a group of people who came to inquire about the truth, and the smile on her face completely disappeared.

Mrs. Xu was sitting in the front hall. Seeing her like this, she couldn't help laughing: "Why are you bothering? At worst, tell them the truth of the matter."

"That can't be said." Mrs. Huang shook her head, "Nowadays, the folks are just guessing. Even if the emperor knows about it, he won't care too much about it. I'm afraid that our entire Huang family will not escape the emperor's wrath."

In a rage, the emperor laid down millions of corpses.

No matter how powerful their Huang family is, life and death are at the emperor's whim.

Hearing this, Mrs. Xu sighed.

"Yeah, it's not easy." Madam Xu said, looking at Madam Huang curiously, "What happened? Make you so scared?"

Mrs. Huang is extremely vigilant about this. Even though Mrs. Xu is her best sister, she still shook her head when faced with this inquiry: "This can't be said, if we do, our Huang family's days will be over gone."

Hearing this, Mrs. Xu couldn't help laughing out loud: "Could it be that it's really like the rumors, is it related to the emperor? Or a scandal?"

Mrs. Huang thought about it carefully, then shook her head: "That's not true."

"So I'm relieved." Mrs. Xu patted Mrs. Huang's shoulder and said with a smile, "If it's really a scandal related to the emperor, then no matter whether you talk about it or not, as long as you know about it, you will surely die. "

"That's right." Mrs. Huang showed a wry smile, "I really regret that I shouldn't let my husband do what he wants!"

But in fact, what she regretted even more was hearing Gu Ning's statement. Now that she thinks about it, all the rumors in the capital are probably caused by Gu Ning, and Gu Ning's target is actually the emperor!

Where did she get such courage?There must be the eldest princess or the Pei family behind the scenes!

Thinking of this, Mrs. Huang sighed sadly.

"Now I'm neither advancing nor retreating." She said quietly, "Now I just want to solve this matter as soon as possible."

"Don't worry." Mrs. Xu patted Mrs. Huang's shoulder and comforted her, "I heard that the emperor is worrying about another matter these days, and when he finds time, he will be able to solve this matter. Just keep your head down for a while."

Mrs. Huang nodded: "Mr. Zhuang is already dead. My husband hasn't asked anything from him yet. Now everything is our guess. I just hope that the emperor will not anger us because of this."

"I'm afraid that the emperor doesn't have the leisure to anger you." Mrs. Xu saw the situation in the court more clearly, she frowned, and said softly, "I see the changes in the capital during this period, I'm afraid... I'm afraid the crown prince will be rebellious!"

Madam Huang's eyes widened in shock: "How is this possible?"]

"How is it impossible?" Mrs. Xu pointed out, "You should know better than me, isn't Mr. Zhuang just..."

Mrs. Huang thought guiltily, she knew more, and it was because of this that she couldn't tell these secrets.

So, she sighed along with Mrs. Xu and said nothing more.

On the other side, Master Huang was with Patriarch Xu.

Both of them are very sensitive to the government, and they immediately realized the undercurrent surging under the calm surface of the capital.

"Brother Huang, have you heard of the rumors in the capital these past few days?" Patriarch Xu poured wine for Master Huang, and stared closely at Master Huang while talking.

Master Huang smiled wryly: "Of course I heard about it. Even if there were no such rumors, I would know what was going on."

"Those missing people were indeed found in the prince's original third prince's mansion, and the Mr. Zhuang who was captured was indeed the prince's man, but before my people could interrogate anything, Mr. Zhuang was assassinated and killed in a dark prison. middle."

"You should also know what happened in Dali Temple that day."

It can be said that the movements of Dali Temple that day were known to all the aristocratic families in the capital.

However, there are different opinions on whether Mr. Zhuang is dead or alive.

The more Master Huang talked, the more bitter the smile on his face became.

Seeing his appearance like this, Master Xu thought that he was worrying about how to deal with the emperor. Having had a similar experience, he patted Lord Huang on the shoulder sympathetically: "The emperor still wants to use you, at most he will scold you, and you will not There will be other actions, and you don't have to worry too much."

"I know." Master Huang managed to pull himself together, but felt very bitter in his heart.

He was in the same mood as Mrs. Huang at this time, so he shouldn't have easily believed Xie Yan's nonsense!These rumors are not aimed at the prince, they are clearly aimed at the emperor!

The Pei family keeps saying that they are loyal to the emperor and patriotic, what are they doing!

When Mr. Huang thought of this, the expression on his face couldn't help but become agitated.

"Brother Xu!" Master Huang patted Patriarch Xu on the shoulder, and sighed deeply, "My heart is suffering!"

"I understand." Patriarch Xu also patted him on the shoulder, "You don't have to worry, the emperor..."

"You don't understand!" Master Huang shook his head, suppressing all the distress in his heart, he wished to confide all the suffering to Patriarch Xu, but he couldn't!

At the same time, at Pei's house, Pei Anlin, who was regarded as the driving force behind the scenes by Mrs. Huang and Mr. Huang, was looking at each other with the eldest princess in the front hall.
